| Orienteering means maps, varied terrain and adventure. It doesn't matter how young or old or fit you are. You can run, jog or walk; you decide your own pace. Orienteering is a sport where competitors navigate their way between control points marked on a specially drawn map. We have a number of introductory courses on-site and a number of courses are available locally.
Orienteering is a perfect outdoor activity for schools. It has challenging courses for all ages and abilities, and can be used as an element in the National Curriculum for PE, Geography and Mathematics. Once the basic skills are understood decision-making and route planning are key with participants often working in pairs – 2 heads are better then one. |
