Welcome to Orienteering NSW

Orienteering is a sport that challenges both the body and the mind. It's also loads of fun!

The aim is to use a special orienteering map to navigate your way around a course and visit marked check points along the way. You choose a course that suits your age and experience and proceed at your own pace: walk, jog or run. It is a race but you decide if you want to just race yourself or be the next world champion! The course may take you through urban areas, parks, schools, farmland or forests.

Events are conducted weekly across NSW and beginners are welcome at all events.

Other events require pre-entry and for that you need to know about (and register with) Eventor - read the Eventor FAQ.

There are events on all four days of the Easter weekend (April 19-22), followed by a social score course event on Anzac Day, then the Australian Sprint and Middle Champs on April 26-27.

With 7 quality orienteering experiences in just 9 days, you can be assured of a great range of terrains and events.

Meanwhile, it's Adelaide's turn to host a sprint weekend in the New Year - from January 25-28.

Organisers are offering four days and five sprint races in detailed urban and forest terrain open to all competitors. The event is being organised by the national orienteering squads as part of a training camp in Adelaide.

Come and compete against Australia’s best or simply enjoy some fun summer holiday orienteering. Short, medium, and long courses available, with moderate to hard navigation, including a night race. Entries will be open soon.
