Learn to Orienteer - Port Macquarie

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.


Rumbal in the jungle signals our return

We're back, baby!

And just a little bit tired after a thorought workout at Rumbalara Reserve on the Central Coast on Sunday morning in our first official event since the covid lockdown on a cool, clear winter's day.

Rumbalara is a lovely pocket of bushland just behind Gosford... but it is oh so steep!

A tough reintroduction that resembled boot camp more than a cross country run, it was great to see people making the trek from Sydney, Newcastle and even the ACT.

Former Olympic marathoner Martin Dent blitzed the 3.9km Hard course in 41m30s, son Connor took out the Easy and Newcastle teen Erika Enderby won the Moderate.

It's so good to be back in the forest! Thanks to first-time setter Ivan Kent and hosts Central Coast. Their next event is Sunday August 9 at Kincumber Mountain Reserve.
