SOGs are friendly club events where children and newcomers are very welcome. Yellow and Orange courses are suitable for children to run on their own with a bit of practice. Adults are welcome to shadow children until they are confident to go on their own. Green and Blue courses are run or walked by any age group - you can race competitively or just enjoy the woodland. |

Course description: | Worthlodge is one of Southdowns Orienteers very best areas, having previously hosted the British Middle Distance Championships. It is largely runnable woodland, being undulating with several stream valleys and areas of interesting ground. While some tracks are currently quite muddy, the forest floor is firm and the straight line option is likely to be quickest for much of the Green & Blue courses. |
