The JK

The JK - Jan Kjellström Festival of Orienteering

The JK is British Orienteering's biggest Festival of Orienteering. It takes place each year over Easter weekend and attracts around 4000 orienteers from both the UK and abroad. The event consists of a Sprint (Friday), Middle or Long (Saturday), Long (Sunday) and Relays (Monday). The event also includes two TrailO competitions. It is a fantastic event that also doubles up as a great family holiday.

 

This year, the West Midlands Orienteering Association and the East Midlands Orienteering Association jointly welcome you to JK 2024 across the Midlands.

The areas should be familiar to most people having previously been used for major events; British Sprints, British Middles and the JK.
