Courses

Course description:Safety: Please make sure that you download even if you do not complete your course. CLOK strongly recommends that you carry a whistle while participating in this (and every) orienteering event. Please remember that competitors take part at their own risk. Orienteering is an adventure sport on difficult terrain – you must accept much of the responsibility for your own safety. There are no cliffs or steep slopes in the competition area, but the usual forest hazards – branches, brashings, ditches and marshes – need to be considered. Yellow/black tape may be used to mark hidden ruined fences. Full leg cover is compulsory. There will be a Tag Course (waymarked stringless string course) for very young orienteers
