Example domain paragraphs
While often thought of as a countryside sport, in July 2024 orienteering will take over Edinburgh, when the World Orienteering Championships visit Scotland’s capital city. Four days of racing – for everyone from elite athletes to complete beginners – will showcase the sport for all, and allow people of all abilities to enjoy a world-class sport in a world-class city.
The Scottish Orienteering 6-Day Event Company, along with partners British Orienteering, Scottish Orienteering Association, EventScotland, University of Edinburgh and the City of Edinburgh Council are pleased to welcome you to the Sprint World Orienteering Championships 2024.
All WOC 2024 races will be staged in Edinburgh, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the leading festival city in the world. Edinburgh is packed with historic tenements, the narrow and intricate alleys of the Old Town, the sweeping elegance of the Georgian New Town and, of course, the iconic 12th century Edinburgh Castle and 16th-17th century Palace of Holyroodhouse. Edinburgh is one of the most stunning and enthralling cities in the world, and welcomes international teams, spectators and other orienteers.
