Description
Rogaine is a modality of orientation, long distance, cross-country navigation where teams of 2 to 5 people move on foot with the objective of achieving the maximum score by finding control points marked on a map and within a time limit specified. The control points can be visited in any order and are valued from 3 to 9 points depending on their physical and/or technical difficulty.
The maps are given to the teams between 30 minutes and 15 minutes before the start depending on the duration of the test. At that time each team must define the race strategy taking into account their capabilities.
Location
The test will be held in the surroundings of the Boí Taüll mountain station, located in the Lleida Pyrenees, in the Alta Ribagorça region, in a unique setting, at the gates of the Aigüestortes and Estany de Sant Maurici in one of the most spectacular places in the Catalan Pyrenees thanks to the Romanesque heritage of the Vall de Boí.
The Boí Taüll ski and mountain resort has a maximum elevation of 2,751 m and a minimum elevation of 2,035 m.
Terrrain and map
High mountain terrain, mostly open and comfortable for running cross-country, with occasional elements of vegetation, rocks and cliffs. Also with some forest areas and many contour details. The slopes are generally moderate to strong. The competition will be run with a specific map of Rogaine, mapped with the specific symbology of orienteering races. Generalized field work of a Rogaine map.
It is a map at a scale of 1:15000 and equidistant 10 m, made in the spring of 2023, expanded and revised in the spring of 2024, with field work by the technical staff of La Nova Fita.
