Orienteering club „RIS“ Delnice

The orienteering club "RIS" Delnice was established on February 12th, 2000. It promotes orienteering in Delnice, Gorski Kotar, and Primorsko–Goranska County in order to someday achieve the status of an Olympic sport. 

It assists Club members in quality development in order to worthily represent the club on sports and a personal level. In the area of Gorski kotar, club members organized the 1998 European Military and 1999 World Military Orienteering Championship, and 2010 World Radio Goniometry Championship.

Taking into account the regional competition Alpe Adria Cup in 2004 it may be concluded that the specific areas covered by green karst and proximity to coastal resorts are a winning combination that every year attracts a growing number of fans of this sport.

Orienteering – the modern form of active vacation


The form of human movement in nature is the basis for the development of most outdoor sports activities. Orienteering sport is a very interesting individual sport that allows all participants not only to improve their physical performance but also to improve their map reading and compass skills. It is not a sport for passive bystanders because its attractiveness and acceptability are achieved through involvement. Orienteering mostly takes place in vast untouched wooded areas, and, over recent years, urban areas where sprint races are organized, which besides their attractiveness also have a promotional character.

Croatia Open is a international orienteering competition, one of its kind and most meaningful orienteering event with traditional characters in Croatia. 

Aspiration and devotion to organizing this competition at the highest possible level have so far attracted thousands of competitors from more than 40 countries to Gorski kotar and Croatia. All of the organizer efforts have been recognized by IOF leaders (International Orienteering Federation) who have appointed competition the WRE (World ranking Event) status several times so far. 

The competition has profiled itself as one of the most important in the region, and Gorski Kotar was promoted to a European orienteering summer destination.
