Welcome to Orienteering NSW

Orienteering is a sport that challenges both the body and the mind. It's also loads of fun!

The aim is to use a special orienteering map to navigate your way around a course and visit marked check points along the way. You choose a course that suits your age and experience and proceed at your own pace: walk, jog or run. It is a race but you decide if you want to just race yourself or be the next world champion! The course may take you through urban areas, parks, schools, farmland or forests.

Events are conducted weekly across NSW and beginners are welcome at all events.

Other events require pre-entry and for that you need to know about (and register with) Eventor - read the Eventor FAQ.


MetrO rocks Mitchell Park

Mitchell Park signalled a return to traditional bush O for Round 2 of our MetrO League on Sunday.

Occasional rock clusters and steep gullies tested competitors but setter Airdrie Long got the distances spot on.

There were some clear winning margins: Garingal junior Angus Leung won Division 3 by six minutes, and Knox's Alex Koch-Lowndes took out Division 5 by five and half minutes.

Newly minted JWOC rep Alastair George (Big Foot) and Uringa club captain Shane Doyle repeated their round one performances of the fastest times in Divisions 1-2 respectively.

Big Foot and Garingal have cleared ahead in Division 1. Uringa and the Feet now lead Division 2 after twin victories, while SHOO-IKO remain unbeaten in Division 3.

GO Monitors are the only unbeaten side in a tight Division 4, while UR-CC and WHO recorded their second straight wins in Division 5.

It was great to see so many newcomers across all the divisions. All the scores and splits have been posted on our ML web page.
