Just like with WOC 2027, we are making no compromises when it comes to its official spectator race, the Hungária Kupa: we strive for perfection and a thoroughly professional execution.
An unforgettable orienteering holiday!

Our Philosophy
Find Your Way!
Two events – one shared experience
WOC 2027 and the Hungaria Cup 2027 form a single, complex international sports festival. The shared infrastructure and the stunning locations stretching from the Bakony Mountains to Lake Balaton guarantee that the experience doesn’t end at the finish line.
Time for exploration
We believe that peak performance requires rest. We have included a dedicated rest day in our competition program, when neither WOC nor Hungaria Cup races take place. This day is about you: recharging and discovering the region’s hidden beaches and local gastronomy.
Find your own way!This is our core philosophy. We don’t offer a single, mandatory route, but freedom: find your own challenge on the courses and your own experiences beyond them.
