Courses

Course description:A mixture of natural woodland and camping / activity fields. The woodland is generally quite runnable, but is along a slope with a number of streams, ditches and marshy areas. There are lots of paths and tracks within the woods. The grassy fields are on the higher / flatter ground and are crossed mainly to gain distance rather than to pose an orienteering challenge!
Colour coded courses:Yellow, Orange, Green, Blue
