- In this video you can follow me on a 4 km orienteering course in Store Dyrehave - an area that is on the Unesco World Heritage list.
Most of the course went fairly well - with one exception: At control #6 I was searching for a small hole, but misread which flat hill was the right one. That cost around 3 minutes.
The venue was "Danish Spring 2024" - a World Ranking Event which attracts runners from especially Denmark and Sweden, but there are also participants from a long list of countries.

Hello thanks for sharing the run and the info. I glanced at LiveLox, but did see any events recently in Denmark.
You'll find tracks from most Danish events at www.o-track.dk.
If you're looking for upcoming events they may be found at www.orienteringslob.dk.
If you're visiting Denmark at at specific time, send me and e-mail and I'll point you in the direction of some events. (ernst.poulsen@gmail.com)
What was the control feature for #2...depression...or rootstock? if it was depression...the course setter improperly hid the control behind something...that is not allowed...and generally controls should be between knee and waist high...or chest high for anything like white or yellow.
Yes. Control #2 was in a small depression. There's a very small marking of "slow running" (undergrowth) in the depression, and in general Danish forests are getting more and more "fallen trees" as they're leaving them out to rot - to allow for more insects.
And, you're right. The control was a little hidden behind the fallen log, but I wasn't in doubt, so didn't loose time on that one. In general Store Dyrehave is a fairly open forrest at this time of year. Finding controls in August is always much more tricky.
