Permanent Virtual (GPS) Orienteering Courses

A Permanent Orienteering Course is a perfect way for getting active, enjoying the scenery and green spaces with your family, or as a chance to get outdoors for a competitive time trial.

The challenge is to discover checkpoints (or controls) in the form of posts or plaques, positioned in forests, heathlands, parks and green spaces across the UK. The combination of physical and mental exercise, often in stunning locations, is like no other.

You can find, navigate and complete courses at any time, and at your own pace. You just need a map to get you started!

Together with a map showing where they all are, with the right App your smartphone/watch can magically become a brilliant orienteering device and be a map, a compass and a timer all in one.
