I've already inserted a link pointing at your wiki page. Now, we only 
have to update the wiki without creating possible inconsistencies 
between the two pages:

Ok, so just to be clear:

Hackfest attendees that are also Workshop presenters at the QGIS 
Conference = Free entrance
Hackfest attendees that aren't Workshop presenters at the QGIS 
Conference = Fee payment*

Am I right?

Yes. I already added some information about the venue some days ago. 
Now, I am editing the wiki again just for adding more information about 
the area, transportation and so on...

Ok, as soon as we approach the dates for the hack fest, we can decide 
whether organize a soft or a hard trail run. It entirely depends on the 
interested people and on the quantity of adrenaline that you want to 
burn off! I've inserted some text also on the wiki page.

As soon as the call for workshops and presentations ends, I will contact 
Lene again to organize the Conference Program (both presentations and 
workshops). We really appreciate her help and experience.
