Terrain description
Type of terrain: Flat plane with few features and steep slopes. The terrain is located between 500 and 700m above sea level.
Area structure: The wet, feature-rich north and west slopes are characterized by many, partially large boulders and rocks. The south slopes are very dry and streaked with feature-rich terraces.
Vegetation: Mixed-type forest: Spruce, breech, pine trees. Changing from undergrowth or dense vegetation (blackberry, grass) to almost vegetation-free soil, some passages overgrown with young breech trees.
Runnability: Changing from very well to medium, some sections poor. The competition will mostly take place in the slopes.
Visibility: Mostly average, sometimes reduced, some sectors also very well. Trails: Dense network of trails of class 4 and 5.
Specials: At the edges between the plane and the steep slopes there are many cliffs, some of which are as high as 30m, that cannot be passed through. Cliffs displayed as not passable on the map shall be passed through under no circumstances.
