We know many of you are already counting down the days and wondering: where is the parking, what kind of terrain, when is the start, what should we expect on May 1st? 🧭😄
So before the full Bulletin No. 2 is released, we are giving you a preview of Day 1 of Bukowa Cup XIII!

📅 1 May 2026 – a full day of action!

🌲 E1 – Middle Distance

📍 Emerald Lake – Szczecin

We begin in one of the most scenic places in the region. Expect classic moraine terrain, runnability from very good to challenging, a well-developed path network and terrain that rewards accurate navigation. The forest is actively managed, so staying focused from the first control will be important.

⏰ First start at 11:00
🚶 Start only 150 m from Event Centre
🏁 Finish at Event Centre

♿ PreO Sprint

📍 Gryfino – Primary School No. 3

In the afternoon we move to Gryfino for a fast and exciting TrailO Sprint. Short, dynamic and spectator-friendly – 20 controls, no climb, where precision and concentration will be the key.

⏰ First start at 17:00

🏙️ E2 – Sprint Race

📍 Gryfino – brand new terrain!

In the evening it is time for sprint racing in a completely new area. Apartment blocks, residential streets, single-family houses, sports complex and climb – fast, technical and with no room for mistakes.

⏰ First start at 18:00
🚶 Start 150 m from Event Centre
🏁 Finish at Event Centre

🚗 Important practical information
Emerald Lake – two parking areas on Kopalniana Street
Gryfino – we recommend arriving early, as the Gryfino Days festival takes place at the same time

💚 In one sentence: 1 May will be intense, varied and truly Bukowa Cup style!

Full details, start lists, maps and all technical information will be published soon in Bulletin No. 2.
