Description
Geneva Orienteering Cup in the Mont-Mussy forest.
A popular orienteering race open to all, from CERN or elsewhere, athletes or families, runners or walkers, children or adults, etc.
Registrations can be made either on the CERN Orienteering Club website (https://club-orientation-cern-geneve.ch/calendrier) until Thursday May 1, or on site (just turn up at the start of the event between 12.30 and 2.30 p.m.). A precise map is provided and compasses are on loan.
The Coupe Genevoise consists of a dozen races in different forests around Geneva, organized in collaboration with other orienteering clubs in Switzerland and neighbouring France. Each race features 5 or 6 different routes:
- 3 easy courses (short, medium and long), with markers located exclusively on or near paths and tracks. For beginners who are just learning to read a map.
- 3 technical courses (short, medium and long), which have in common that the paths between the posts rarely use paths or tracks. Map-reading and compass skills are essential for success on these courses.
Prices: Individual/ Teams: €10, Family (separate starts): €25, SI-card rental: €2, Additional card: €2
Payment on site.
