PLEASE do not park on other places, because it will not be tolerated by the camping administration and the gates will be closed, which means everybody will need to park afterwards on the parking lot before the reception.

The toilets are in the service houses. The code to open the door is: 6971

The race office is on the right side of the road, as you drive into the camping area. It is a grey wooden barrack.

The registration starts tomorrow afternoon as the race committee arrives (appr. 17:00)

See you on the ice.

Ice scouting 2020 – First post

by C_CJ | 2020 Feb 03 | 2020 WC, REGATTA News

Dear Fellow Icesailors,

This year the weather made ice scouting easy on one hand and difficult on another hand.

It is easy because there is no wide choice of sailable ice in Europe and it is difficult because of the hotels near the place, where we found the ice, are fully booked this time.

Thus I have to postpone the event, to have the chance for everybody to book accommodation in the reach of the launching site, which will be the Orsa Camping. We will have there all the racing facilities.

The position of the launching site is: https://goo.gl/maps/qS7a2HhFqK2TuxN8A

The camping still has free 4 and 6 beds houses.

Please book your houses starting from Sunday (9th of February).

The Orsa Camping accommodation can be reserved by emailing to stina.larsson@orsacamping.se with a copy to terese.alfredsson@gronklittsgruppen.se. The Grönklitts Gruppen have other accommodation facilities in the neighbourhood as well. Please quote in your reservation “DN WORLDS”.

Unfortunately, there are no big hotels in the neighbourhood, where we could have arranged the Headquarters. There are small hotels, hostels and private houses to book in Orsa, Lindänget, Vattnäs and Mora.

This decision is preliminary that you may make all travel arrangements.
