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.


Super Sunday - Sailors Bay this weekend

This event visits the Willoughby Council area's best parks and reserves, walking trails, historical locations and bush areas. It has the same format as the Sydney Summer Series, but with more time, special places to visit and lots more views. Join us for this special race.

The event is a 120-minute score course with starts from 9am until 10am. (The course closes at 12:15pm.) But there is MORE.

The map is bigger, it covers 4 headlands on Sydney's Middle Harbour (Northbridge, Castlecrag, Willoughby Sugarloaf and Castle Cove). The time is longer (so you can visit more locations). If you want to join as a group there are more options. Most importantly, the controls will be in locations that are significant, either scenically, historically, or culturally.
(The scores will not be included in the Sydney Summer Series total)  

NOTE: All entries including Group entries are now through Eventor

The Information Flyer has details on page 2.

Venue: Warners Park, The Outpost (western end), Northbridge.
Map: The will be a special orienteering-style map for this event. The scale will be 1:12,500
Control descriptions along with details of the significance of each control site will be printed on the flip side of the map.
Note: Access to these bushland reserves depends on ALL participants, keeping to the pathways at ALL times while on their course.
