Proposing organizer Kalke Ry wish to express its interest to organize the World Rogaining Championships in Finland in August 2015. We welcome the growing family of rogainers to Arctic Lapland, Saariselkä, 250 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle in August 2015. Kalke Ry has introduced the 24 hour rogaining concept in Finland by organizing already 5 full time (24 hours) open Retki Rogaing events since 2007 and hosted European Rogaing Championship in Ylläs 2009. Kalke Ry hosts the website http://retki.rogaining.fi where the history of the rogaining events organized by Kalke ry can be found. 2. Proposed date for the event The proposed date in August 22 nd -23 rd 2015 offering first glimpse of the incoming fall with all the colors – Ruska, but still with safe margin for coming winter and possibility of snow is minimal. 3. Planed location The venue is one of the largest national parks in Finland - Urho Kekkosen Kansallispuisto and next by areas with existing infrastructure for the event centre. It is located roughly 250 km north of the polar circle and is in major part desert. Exceptions are the Saariselkä resort and some individual habituated area close to the main road. The location of the competition area is indicated in the map below. Competition area is well north from the polar circle but still the conditions, especially at summer are mild.
