Orienteering in Wales at Black Mountains Activity CentreOrienteeringOrienteering is the sport of navigating unfamiliar terrains using a map. It is easy to learn but always challenging. The objective is to walk or run between a series of control points marked on the map choosing routes, both on and off trail, that will help you find all the points and get back to the finish line in the quickest time.
If you love maps, exploring the great outdoors, and a challenge then try orienteering. Often called the "thinking sport", this activity is sure to exercise both mind and body, and has proven to be a great activity for everyone regardless of age or experience.
