Fancy a challenge in the fresh air? Then come along and try orienteering. It is a great day out for all the family.
Orienteering is a sport, or recreation, in which you navigate your own way at your own pace between controls set out in forests or cityscapes. The control sites are marked by circles on a special large scale coloured map and by orange and white flags on the ground.
Beginners are very welcome at this event and help will be available to get you started. Please read our website page 'What is orienteering?'. It should answer any questions you have.
We are holding our club annual prizegiving and AGM in the Countryside Centre at Hinchingbrooke in the afternoon after the summer series event.
