map „Podgórze 2014”

scale 1:4 000 and 1:5000, e- 2,5 m, author : Piotr Pietroń

Time limit: 180 min

Terrain description:

The terrain of the city stage is a mixture of urbanized areas (old

tenement houses, modern blocks of flats and single-family houses),

parks, forests and open areas. You can find here many cliffs, rocks and

big rock faces, which are remnants of medieval stone quarries. The

terrain is complicated and offers many variants.

Competition centre and car park:

The competition centre is located at the KS Korona Kraków

football stadium, ul. Parkowa 12 (GPS N50 02.468 E19 57.084).

Schematic map of the centre is presented below. Parking spaces

are available in the car park before the stadium (entrance from ul.

Krzemionki) or on the streets around the stadium and Bednarski

Park (map below).

Start and finish will be located at the KS Korona football

stadium. Finish line will be located on the stadium grounds behind

the goalposts. Start will be behind the stands on the opposite side

of the stadium (the approach to the start will not be marked,

details on the map above). There is no quarantine during the race

but consulting with other contestants who have already finished

their run is strictly forbidden. Warm-up area is available on the

stadium grounds. Areas marked on the map with vertical purple

lines are out of bounds for contestants both before and after the

race. Contestants and spectators can move freely on the stands.

Streets which are not be crossed have been

streets. Due to car and trams they may be crossed

only in designated places – pedestrian crossings

without traffic lights. Such places have been marked

with a special symbol (example on the right).

Crossing the street in other places will result in

disqualification.

Stage 3 – 27.07.2014

Middle distance

map „Biskupice - Grodzisko”

scale 1: 7 500, e- 5 m, author : Piotr Pietroń

Time limit: 90 min

Terrain description:

The area is characterised by moderate climb (200-300 m a.s.l.) in a

beech forest with very good runnability. Some parts are more dense,

usually they are overgrowing tree-logging places. The relief is

diversified – many ravines, draws (usually shallow), hills, ditches,

accompanied by watercourses, small lakes and marshes. Very little

roads and paths, the existing ones are usually old tree transportation

roads, mostly passable.

Competition centre and car park:

The competition centre is located at the sports field of the primary school in

Biskupice (GPS N50 02.468 E19 57.084). Schematic maps of the center

below. Car park will be organized on the grounds of the fire brigade, next to

the sports field.

Start and finish:

Finish line will be located on the sports field of the primary school in

Biskupice, in the competition centre. The start will be in the forest south of

the school. The approach to the start is ca. 700 m and will be marked with

blue ribbons. You will be walking along a busy road, so please be careful.

Walk only on the pavement and on the left side of the road. Only cross the

road when you have made sure it is safe.

There are two obligatory runs on the way to the finish line. The first one

leads for the penultimate to the last control point, the second one leads to

the finish line. This is due to the fact that part of the approach will be along a

local road. There is little traffic but we ask you to be careful. The approach

will be observed by the referees.

During stage 3 an Orienteering Match Poland vs. Rest of the World will

be held.

Two teams will be selected from among the contestants. The first will be

representing Poland, the second one will consist of competitors from
