Orienteering is adventure with a map. We give you a detailed map of the park, with a series of checkpoints which you attempt to find. There will be 6 different courses of various lengths and difficulty. If you are new to orienteering, we will provide beginner instruction to get you started. Run or walk at your own pace, Go solo or in a group. Pre-registration is encouraged, but it is ok for newcomers to just show up on the day of event.
