| Orienteering means maps, varied terrain and adventure. It
doesn't matter how young or old or fit you are. You can run, jog or walk,
you decide your own pace. Orienteering is a sport where competitors navigate their
way between control points marked on a specially drawn map. There are
various orienteering disciplines, foot orienteering is
the most common. |

| Orienteering can take place anywhere from remote forest
and countryside to urban parks and school playgrounds. The most challenging
orienteering takes place in remote areas which have demanding terrain and
fewer paths. |

shape. A great sport to take up with friends and family, allowing you to
share your adventures afterwards.
