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.

Want to enter an event? You can see what's on by looking at the Coming Events at left or by going to the Event Calendar. Some events are enter on the day - you just turn up and register at the start. Other events require pre-entry and for that you need to know about (and register with) Eventor - read the Eventor FAQ.

Moonlight Madness starts on Wednesday

Details
Last Updated: Monday, 15 May 2023 11:21

One of our winter series - Moonlight Madness - starts up this Wednesday with Warwick Selby and Greg Dominish from Garingal club hosting us at Waverton Park, Corner Woolcott and Larkin Streets, Waverton.

This one is also celebrating World Orienteering Day.

Please enter online in Eventor or on the day.

Using the same 30-control score course format as the popular Sydney Summer Series, Moonlight Madness is conducted in Sydney locations on the Wednesday of the month nearest the full moon.

You'll need a torch or headlamp, and courses are generally shorter than SSS to allow for the slower navigation after dark. Bush controls are located on tracks for safety.

The start window is 5.30-7pm and this year we are using SportIdent for all events.

The 2nd event is the Vivid showcase event on the Wednesday, 7th June beneath the Sydney Harbour Bridge at Anderson Park, Clark Road, Kirribilli.

Not to mention, all the world's elites say that orienteering at night improves your skills!
