Go Orienteering - Your time, your pace, your adventure

British Orienteering and orienteering clubs around the UK are working together to promote Permanent Orienteering Courses as a way of discovering the outdoors.   Some clubs have also developed these virtually, so you can simply complete courses with your GPS smartphone or watch.

Orienteering is an outdoor sport that involves participants following a course marked on a map and finding their way to a series of checkpoints. It is up to you to decide which way to go, which is all part of the fun and sets it apart from just a walk or run.

Permanent and Virtual Orienteering Courses are great for…

  • Enjoying the fresh air and getting outdoors and active
  • Exploring new areas with family and friends
  • Learning new life skills like navigation and map reading
  • Available at a time of day that suits you best

The other great thing about Permanent and Virtual Orienteering Courses is that they can be completed at any time, and at your own pace. To get started you just need to use the search facility and download a map from the Go Orienteering website:  www.GoOrienteering.org.uk
