Orienteering
This is a timed event in which participants have to navigate in order to different control flag locations marked on their map and pin-punch their scorecard to prove they have visited the control flag site.
This family friendly activity is suitable for people of all ages and skill level.
People can take part as individuals, families or groups of friends, and children must be under the supervision of an adult.
Participants can walk, jog or run, and suitable footwear and clothing should be worn for weather and underfoot conditions on the day.
A compass is optional to assist with navigation, and guidance on what to do can be given by members of Isle of Man Orienteering Klubb if you are new to this activity.
