There's no orienteering event this coming weekend - 6/7 March. If you are keen to get out on a map, then download one of the Anytime Orienteering Courses. There are several to choose from.
The next organised orienteering event is NavDash 2 at Garvey Park. NavDash events are a great way to get into orienteering. Come and have a go.
If you're up for the challenge, see how quickly you can get round the course without mispunching. You're always welcome to run another course afterwards if you want to (no additional charge).
If you want to take things at a more leisurely place, that's no problem. Running's not compulsory - just be back at the assembly area by 11:30am. As the controls are close together, NavDash events are great to keep little ones engaged - just watch out for those dashing round the course.
Please pre-enter via Eventor if at all possible.
Information about NavDash (sprint) orienteering can be found here.
Courses:
Hard Long: running distance around 4km
Hard Short: running distance around 2.7km
Easy: expect to run/walk around 2.1km
