Welcome to Newcastle Orienteering Club

 Orienteering is a competitive or non-competitive recreational activity in which participants use a detailed map, and usually a compass, to navigate between checkpoints on an unfamiliar course in bush terrain, parkland or urban areas.  

If you like a physical and mental challenge while exploring the outdoors, orienteering is the sport for you!

Another fine club event in a great area. Some long legs caused a bit of navigation mayhem for a few of the Red course runners that lacked concentration over the entire leg. Thanks to Malcolm for setting the courses and tor Peter Newton for assisting him by looking after the gear side of things. This arrangement works well as the course setter can just worry about course related matters. We are looking for more people (not the same old ones) that may wish to assist course setters at upcoming events by being gear orgsanisers. You do not need to be technically proficient at orienteering at all to assist with this so stick your hand up and assist the club in the running of its activities.
