Czech O-Tour races will follow the World Cup
1. 7. 2025
Until now, we have revealed the Czech O-Tour locations for the next year after the end of the season, but this year we will make a small exception. The Orienteering World Cup returns to the Czechia in 2026 and the Czech O-Tour can’t miss it! On August 6-9, 2026 you will be able to run in the terrains where the best orienteers of the world fought a day earlier. And where? In the southernmost part of the Czech Republic around Vyšší Brod, with the nearby Lipno water reservoir or the UNESCO Český Krumlov. There will be 4 forest races and we have a big goal – let’s organize the biggest race in the Czech Republic with 2000 orienteers.
- Entries will open in ORIS in November/December 2025
