Are you longing for the O-Ringen too strongly?

There are ways to get in the right mood

Our work in planning the O-Ringen speeds up and we are longing to meet you all in Örebro and show you all the fine O-Ringen town, arenas and not least the town of Örebro.  With every day that passes there is yet another piece of the puzzle put into place in order to give you all an experience out of the ordinary, and what do you say about Junior Camp in tiomila terrain? Veteran Camp in Ånnaboda and training races in classic Kilsbergen? Yes, there is a lot to do in the days before the O-Ringen starts.

Do you feel the urge? 
 Now you can test out our partnership with Team Sportia where O-Ringen souvenirs are for sale via Team Sportias OL:s webbshop. You can equip yourselves now for 2010's orienteering season that is starting soon. 
On top of the O-Ringens souvenirs there is everything you need in order to come as prepared as possible to the start of the O-Ringen.

Örebro – not just a population centre

Our hope is that Örebro will show itself from all its sunniest sides when you visit July 24th-31st 2010.
Örebro is a large lake town near Sweden's fourth largest lake, Hjälmaren, with everything it has to offer.  There are daily boats from central Örebro via Svårtan out in Hjälmarens blue waves.  In the evenings there is the opportunity to take a tour on a shrimp boat and revel in these amazing shell fish.  The places are limited so you need to book a place.

Another enduring pearl in Hjälmaren is Vinön. In order to get to Vinön you have to get to Hampetorp on the lakes south side and take a ferry.  On the north side of the island you will find a beautiful sandy beach which offers a perfect bathing place.  In the middle of the island there is a restaurant with fish courses as their speciality.
Hampetorp badplats
In Hampetorp you can also find one of many bathing places along Hjälmaren's beaches.
Another enjoyable trip throughout the week is the municipality's national famous open-air facility - Ånnaboda.  You can find a mixture of wonderful walking trails, bathing places and a nice restaurant here. Kilsbergen offers many good day trips and a personal favourite can be found in connection to the first stage at Mogetorp, where there is a rich cave system with a number of walking trails.
