Welcome to Latvia, dear rogainers!
Welcome words from Event Director.
Martins Vimba,
Event Director.
We are truly honored to host the large family of rogainers in 2017, when we have been approved to organize the World Rogaining Championships!
Let me tell you a few words about the upcoming event! Competition area (~250 km²) is located in the central and south part of Rāzna National Park, Latgale upland in Latvia. The 15th WRC2017 event location is situated ~ 275 km to E from capital Riga, ~40 km SE of Rēzekne, ~ 100 km NE of the second largest city of Latvia – Daugavpils.
Selected competition area provides interesting, challenging and enjoyable countryside and terrain for competition. There are no big mountains in the area, but a lot of small and medium sized hills with climbs up to 60 m. There are no big swamps and rivers, but a lot of small streams.
