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.

Other events require pre-entry and for that you need to know about (and register with) Eventor - read the Eventor FAQ.


Weather cools down as competition hots up

Runners in the State League races at Belanglo this weekend will be relieved that the hot weather of the last few days has broken, and whilst there are still some high winds today, by the weekend the forecast is for cool running temperatures of around 20'. 

Saturday's State League #10 Middle Distance Race is hosted by Uringa and will use a fully re-worked Bunnygalore map now renamed 'Beyond Rocklea'; Sunday's race, State League #11 combines a Long Distance race with the NSW Schools Championships.  State Juniors already selected for the squad travelling to the Australian Championships, will be out in force vying for the racing spots on the team.

Competitors can find their start lists and final information on-line now here
