Welcome to The Summer Event in Nord Østerdal 2013
Join us for a three days orienteering competition in terrains nearby the national parks of “Rondane” and “Forellhogna” in the northeastern part of southern Norway. The area is called “Nord Østerdal”, and is located approximately 300 km north of Oslo and 170 km south of Trondheim. There is train connection from both Oslo and Trondheim, but an own vehicle is needed for transport between the three different competiton sites. The orienteering terrains have mainly open pine and birch forest with little or no undergrowth. The maps are rich on height curve details. The landscape at the first day were formed by the melting glaciers 15.000 years ago. With open vegetation and good runability the terrains may allow fast running, although you will also experience some steep hills and other challenges.
