What Is Orienteering?
Orienteering is an outdoor navigation sport where you use a detailed map and compass to locate checkpoints across varied terrain. It combines strategy, speed, problem-solving, and exploration—think of it as a real-world treasure hunt!
How It Works: Score-O
Participants have up to a two-hour time limit to find as many controls as possible and make it back to the finish. Find controls in any order. Controls are worth five (5) points each with one (1) point penalty for each minute late. We provide everything you need:
- High-quality course maps
- Chip timing
- Loaner compasses
- One-on-one beginner instruction
Own the Terrain. Master the Map.

Dress for the weather and come ready to run, hike, navigate, and explore. The adventure goes on in any condition!
