Orienteering is a fun sport where the goal is to find checkpoints on a map. Learn to Orienteer is our new 4-week program designed to teach the basic skills of orienteering to beginners and those with limited experience.

- Navigate with or without a compass
- Practise each skill in a friendly group environment
The 2-hour sessions are held once a week in a safe urban environment. Participants learn from experienced leaders at their own pace, with group size limited to 20 people to keep it personal.
Each participant will receive a Participant’s Handbook – a handy resource for now and in future.
