We are Czech Orienteering, we are one family

The New Face of the Czech O-Tour: Together as One Orienteering Family

Two months before the start of the highly anticipated Orienteering World Cup in Šumava, we have some big news to share. The Czech O-Tour is changing its visual identity! Our goal is to show that we belong together and to unify our communication under the umbrella of the “Český orienťák” (Czech Orienteering) brand.

Our website, social media, and race materials—all of this will be getting a fresh new look in the coming days. Why did we decide to take this step right now?

One Family, One Identity

The Czech O-Tour is an integral part of the entire Czech orienteering community. With preserving our identity, we want to recognised as a member of Czech Orienteering family and new brand Český orienťák.

“We want to show that we are one big family. Whether you are running an elite World Cup race or enjoying a Czech O-Tour stage with your family, we are in this together. A unified visual style perfectly highlights this connection.”

Heading to Vyšší Brod Under One Banner

This change comes intentionally two months before the peak of the season in Šumava. The World Cup will draw massive attention to Czech orienteering, and we want to communicate clearly, professionally, and consistently towards runners, spectators, and partners alike.

For you, the competitors, nothing changes regarding the races themselves—you can still look forward to excellent service, top-notch maps, a great atmosphere, and unique terrains. It will all just look a bit more cohesive.

Thank you for running with us, and we look forward to seeing you this summer in VYšší Brod in Šumava—now in our brand-new design!
