WHICH CLASS IS BEST FOR ME?

BAMM 10,

This class is perfect for those who are maybe less experienced in orienteering, and want to try hiking or running a back country race through the mountains. This class will not require significant experience in the mountains. The course will range from 10-15 kilometers, both following a path and over unmarked, partially mountainous terrain.. If you’re interested in trying out this exciting challenge without needing to sleep out overnight, this is the class for you.

Even though Class 10 begins on the Saturday (the 2nd day of the full competition), competitors will still receive the map and course the day before, on Friday.
If you would like to get information and explore the surroundings bye your self on Friday please contact our guide office. We have a lot of running, fishing, hiking and biking around. This is a unique mountain area and the challenge itself in order to have the most fun, and create memories you won’t soon forget!

BAMM 30

This class is for those who have some experience in mountainous terrain, with orienteering and planning diverse pathways in order to reach identified targets. If you are able to hike through challenging mountainous terrain up to a total of around 15 -25 kilometres a day over 10 hours, this class is the best pick for you, especially if this is your first time in this kind of competition. The tents and sleeping bags will be transported to the night camp.

BAMM 50

This is the ideal choice for competitors with significant experience in the mountains and in nature. Class 50 will place higher requirements on your orienteering and ability to navigate in mostly unmarked terrain and past, “large obstacles” such as mountains and lakes, which will serve as your points of orientation. If you’re in good physical condition and want a challenge, this is the perfect class for you.

BAMM 70

This class is recommended for those who have exceptional experience in mountainous terrain, orienteering and are in superior physical condition. We recommend that you have at least competed previously in BAMM 50 or a similar competition before registering for BAMM 70. This class is ideal for those looking to test themselves against a considerable challenge. Each team have to carry all equipment they need for the race by them self.

On day 2 there is also the “Exercise” Classes, to allow as many people to participate as possible, even if they were for some reason not able to finish day 1. Teams will choose between the distance classes, 10, 30 or 50.

 

*The course will be a birds eye path. In these classes, teams can be Men, Women or Mixed.
