Bush 1: Jorgensen Park

Crescent Rd, Kalamunda

We will revisit Jorgensen Park, formerly the site of the Kalamunda Golf Club, as an introduction to the 2024 Bush orienteering season. The range of courses offer something for everyone - regardless of age, orienteering experience or fitness level. For those new to orienteering, coaches/instructors will be on hand to get you started.

This event is a WA Schools Team Selection Event.

The EV, E and H5 courses stay mostly up the hill on or close to the old golf course, while M, H4 and H3 go down the hill into rocky terrain. The Bush isn’t too thick,  however leg protection is advised.

Pre-entry to this event via Eventor is strongly preferred.
