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.

ONSW promo videos released

Details: Last Updated: Friday, 30 October 2020 22:57

We are happy to release the final versions of two legacy videos from the wonderful Australian Championships carnival at Hill End and Bathurst in 2017.

These videos were funded via a grant from Sport NSW with the theme "what is orienteering?".

One is pitched to appeal to all ages and the other to younger people.

We thank Toph Naunton for putting them together, along with carnival organiser Barbara Junghans and recently retired Board member Michael Ridley-Smith for their oversight of the project.

The Young and Free video can be found here.

The All Ages video can be found here.

Members and clubs are encouraged to share these videos among friends to help promote orienteering.
