Bulletin is now here. Please read them carefully. Especially info regarding Italian Stages.
Interactive version with clickable coordinates.
We are publishing 2 versions, because the last time some people could not open the interactive version due o hyperlink security settings.
We are a bit late with Bulletin and final course info this year and we apologize for that. Unfortunately, there is a good reason for that (which does not have anything to do with the race itself) …
Before we publish the Bulletin and the course lengths here are the answers to a few of the frequently asked questions:
REGISTRATION AND TRAINING ON JULY 26TH
Possible from on July 26th from 14:00 in Sella Nevea. The training terrain is similar to terrain at Laghi di Fusine, but includes some rather extreme parts which will be marked as forbidden.
DISTANCES FROM PARKING TO ARENA
Stage 1: 0 – 300m
Stage 2: 200m-700m
Stages 3, 4: Bus ride from Planica (SLO) to Laghi di Fusine (ITA)
Stage 5: 0-200m
BUSES – HOW WILL THEY WORK:
Stage 2 Sella Nevea:
Arena close to the parking. Race up on the Altopiano del Montasio plateau.
20 vans (8+1 capacity) will be transporting runners throughout the day (starting at 8:30) to the start area on the Altopiano del Montasio.
The first start is at 9:00, but there will not be a classical start list. Runners will only receive an approximate departure time and will start on the start control. We chose this system to avoid chaos at the start in case of any delays or issues with the vans – which, given the logistics, is not impossible.
After discussions with the bus company (Nomago) and careful consideration of different options and vehicle types, this was decided to be the safest solution. The road is narrow, with 2–3 very sharp and steep turns, making it less suitable for 19-seater buses.
Stages 3 and 4:
Parking will be in Planica (Slovenia). All participants, without exception, must park their vehicles in Planica.
In the bulletin, we will publish your approximate departure time (based on your start time).
Runners will receive a bracelet on the bus, and it will not be possible to start without it. This system ensures that everyone parks in Planica and not in Laghi di Fusine.
8 buses with a capacity of 75 passengers (seated and standing) will be operating.
It is compulsory to carry valid documents, as the route crosses the border. The Italian border police have been informed about the event and has received the list of participants, but we have no guarantee that they won’t check some buses.
Distance from the bus stop at Laghi di Fusine to the Arena is 1300m.
Parking in Planica is payable (4€/car)
ADDITIONAL SPRINT TRAINING RACE JULY 29th PLANICA
OK Komenda will organize a sprint training race in Planica after Stage 3. Click on the flyer below for more information!
Due to too small number of entries we have done the following:
We transferred runners from W65 Ultimate (3 runners) into W65.
We merged W80 (3 runners) with W75 (1 Runner) into W75.
If you were affected by this and would like to run other class, please let us know.
Over the last few days, we’ve removed unpaid entries and added a few new ones — only for Stages 1, 3, 4, and 5. That’s why you might have noticed the number of entries on OrienteeringOnline has been going up a bit.
Stage 2 is now exactly where we wanted it — under 2000 entries — so no more changes there.
We’re currently adding a few more entries that came in via email, including one bigger group, but again, only for Stages 1, 3, 4, and 5. Once these are done, we won’t be adding any more entries for any stage.
It’s great to see so much interest in this year’s edition! At the same time, we’re sorry we had to close entries—thanks for your understanding.
This what we have just sent to all entrants via OrienteeringOnline:
Hello everyone,
You’re receiving this email because you registered for OOcup/2025 – thank you!
The entry limit has been reached, and entries are now closed.
We kindly ask you to check your payment status on OrienteeringOnline and let us know if anything seems incorrect. It’s possible we may have missed recording a payment. If you have already paid but your entry is not marked as paid, please let us know the payment date.
If you haven’t paid yet, please do so as soon as possible. On May 22, we will remove all unpaid entries. This may allow us to open up spots for other runners who are currently unable to enter due to the limit. Please note that once an entry is deleted, it cannot be recovered.
Thank you for your understanding, and have a great day!
Entry limit is reached, entries are currently closed, please do not send us requests for additional entries, as they will not be answered.
Due to logistic challenges on Stage 2 – Altopiani del Montasio we had to limit the number of entries.
In the next days we will delete unpaid entries and perhaps a few new slots will open up. If there will be some possibility to enter the race we will communicate it on this website, so stay tuned. At the moment we do not have waiting list. If we decide to make one, we will publish it here.
Thanks for understanding.
We are excited to inform you that in 2026 we’re going to Ireland 
!
The dates are 26th – 30th July!
Stunning landscapes, hospitable people, lakes, castles, cool pubs and of course some super nice orienteering terrain… you will find all that and much more around Killarney national park in Kerry county during OOcup/2026!
We plan to use 3 distinct terrain types during the week; 1 stage in sand dunes, 3 stages in typical Irish intricate mountain terrain, 1 stage in forest around Muckross gardens in Killarney national park. Possibility to take part in the event car free is planned!
See the map samples from each terrain below:
Enjoy some photos from the area (Kerry & Killarney national park):
Important information: number of entries in this year’s edition will be limited to 2000. Currently we have 1350 entries, so still plenty of room for you to enter, but at the same time it is reasonable to anticipate entries reaching 2000 runners.
Open classes: it will only be possible to enter OPEN classes on Stages 1 and 5. On Stages 2, 3 and 4 it will not be possible to enter any class on site.
You can now enter OOcup/2025 via OrienteeringOnline.
