The 50th anniversary is a milestone in many ways. The summer of 2014 the O-Ringen will be held for the 50th time. The competition will aas usual assemble competitors from across the world, who will compete for medals in a classic five day competition. It is obvious that the worlds greatest orienteering adventure will be held in Skånska territory, exactly as when the competition started. Therefore we welcome you to Skåne and te O-Ringen 2014.
At the O-Ringen 2014 in Skåne the O-Ringen town will be in Rinkaby. The distance to Kristianstad's centre, with shops and hotels, is about 9km and Åhus in the south, with the sea and more hotels, is about 8 'km. From Rinkaby you can reach a number of tourist attractions such as Österlen in the south and forests and lakes to the north.
Skåne has a well built infrastructure and it is easy to get here by both car and bus. From Copenhagen Airport, northern Europe's largest airport has buses directly to Kristianstad. In addition to this there are airports outside of Kristianstad, Malmö, Ängelholm and Ronneby.
TERRAIN
From Rinkaby busses will take participants out to 4 of the 5 stages, with a distance of about 25 km one-way each day. Every stage will be a new challenge and a new experience. Stage 1 will be Ryssberget, stage 2 Västanåberget, stage 3 Friseboda, stage 4 Ravlunda shooting field and stage 5 will be in connection to the O-Ringen town in Rinkaby.
The terrain will be a variation from heathland along the coast to rocky forest and it will demand experience of both continental and Nordic orienteering for the participants to conquer the different areas.
