Orienteering  -  The Sport!

There are many opportunities to get involved in the Sport of orienteering in Cumbria. There are several very active clubs with a lot going on.

Most of the major competitions within the county are held on Sunday mornings. But clubs also have mid week activities which are often very informal, eg. WCOC's Informal Events  on Thursdays throughout the year..

The main thing though is that the sport is open to all ages and all abilities with courses on offer to suit everyone.
