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.

Orienteering NSW launches new website

You have been redirected! 

Orienteering NSW launched its new website today and the team at Orienteering NSW are delighted with it.  'It will be much easier to maintain and update, helping us use our time to get the message out to orienteers across the State rather than struggling with infrastructure,' said ONSW Communications officer Maggie Jones.  ONSW Promotions Director Barbara Hill agrees.  'The old website was designed in a different era when we did not have a team dedicated to the promotion of the sport in quite the same way.  The new website brings new functionality, is much easier to use and we hope will be more stable as we continue to grow as a community.'

Users of the website are reminded to update any bookmarks they may be using.
