ORIENTEERING CLINIC
The children's orienteering clinic will cover orienteering-related topics. After this, there will be an opportunity to orienteer on an easy, approximately 1 km long D-course in the Ruka stadium area (guardians are responsible).
In the orienteering clinic for adults, orienteering-related issues are discussed a little more extensively than with children. We learn to read a map and use a compass. After that, you have the option to navigate the easy, path-based D track, about 1 km long, or the easy C track, about 2 km long, or even go on self-guided tracks (B and A tracks).
DIY CONTOROL POINTS
DIY control points are intended for orienteering enthusiasts. Departures at 17-18. The A and B tracks are located in the beautiful scenery of the Ruka fell area. Do-it-yourself control points are available free of charge at the orienteering clinic, at other times maps are for sale at Ruka Info in the Kumpare shopping center.
