Tervetuloa Esi-Jukolaan 2025
Tervetuloa Esi-Jukolaan ja Viestiliigan osakilpailuun 23.8.2025 – koe tulevan Kotka-Jukolan tunnelma etukäteen!
Esi-Jukola tarjoaa ainutlaatuisen mahdollisuuden testata Kotka-Jukolan maastoja ja järjestelyjä jo vuotta ennen varsinaista suurviestiä. Samalla Viestiliigan osakilpailu tuo paikalle Suomen huippusuunnistajat ja kovatasoisen kisatunnelman. Esi-Jukola kilpaillaan Kymin lentokentän eteläpuolella vauhdikkaasssa kallio- ja kangasmaastossa.
Kilpailu rajoittuu Kotka-Jukolan kilpailualueeseen, ratamestareina toimivat Jukolan tapaan Tuomas Mattila ja Janne Niskanen, ja kartan on tehnyt Janne Weckman. Kolmiosuuksiset viestit noudattavat 50-35-50 min ihanneaikoja. Naisten kilpailevat valoisassa, miesten kilpailu alkaa päivänvalossa päättyen pimeään.
