Many of the club also enjoy orienteering. Orienteering exercises both the mind and the body with the aim being to navigate in sequence between control points marked on a unique orienteering map and decide the best route to complete the course in the quickest time. It doesn't matter how young, old or fit you are, as you can run, walk or jog the course and progress at your own pace.

We occasionally run our own orienteering events called Finch-O’s. These may be either daylight or in the dark requiring head torches. Look out for notices of them in the newsletters.

Below are some links to local orienteering clubs if you’d like to know more about this sport.
