Please note, that the embargoed area needs to be vacated by 8:00! For those staying in Best Western Plus Lakeside Hotel, we insist walking out towards the west to Szeder Street and approach the arena on the western edge of the embargoed area (1.5 km on foot, no markings are provided). A campsite is also located inside the embargoed area.

Terrain – Székesfehérvár North
The area consists of a huge urban park with numerous flowerbeds and a big lake, surrounded by blocks of flats, schools, etc. The part close to the Finish has various sports fields and some tricky out-of-bounds areas (private properties, flower beds, etc.) and fences. Visibility and runnability are both excellent.
Some roads have light traffic which will be regulated during the competition. The terrain is almost completely flat. Besides the lake, there are a few uncrossable canals in the terrain. All water features in the Sprint Qualification terrain are uncrossable! These shall only be crossed on the marked bridges. Utility pipelines are also crossing the canal, these are not marked on the map and are forbidden to use as crossing points. Pipelines which may be mistaken for bridges are closed with red-and-white tape.
Out-of-bounds areas which are not obvious on the ground, are marked by red-and-white tape, which is also demonstrated at the Sprint Model Event.
You will encounter some artificial impassable fences (ISSprOM 518) in the park next to the arena. Race marshals will supervise the area – crossing the red-and-white tapes will lead to disqualification.
