The O-Ringen Academy is a place for orienteering runners from different countries and of different levels including beginners to meet and exchange their experience and learn new things.
The advantage of the O-Ringen Academy is that even orienteers from non-IOF countries can participate.
O-Ringen is a place where you can see elite runners, runners of different ages and different orienteering skills. O-Ringen is historically the largest orienteering event in the world.
The O-Ringen Academy has had a long tradition. It was founded in 1973, when the O-Ringen for the first time invited young runners (M18-W18) from all orienteering countries to come and learn new skills.
