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.

Want to enter an event? You can see what's on by looking at the Coming Events at left or by going to the Event Calendar. Some events are enter on the day - you just turn up and register at the start. Other events require pre-entry and for that you need to know about (and register with) Eventor - read the Eventor FAQ.


Long grass slows down granite hunters

Long grass made for slow times at the Armidale State League weekend that served as a great tune-up for the national Easter carnival in Queensland.

The summer's big wet has turned countryside that last year was bone dry into tall fields that significantly reduced visibility and speed as a result.

Wins that caught our eye at the Middle Distance on Saturday were by Stephanie Dun (HOGs) in W Junior B and Lachlan Coady (WHO) in M14A.

In the Long Distance on Sunday, Sheralee Bailey (Bennelong) beat Jenny Enderby (Newcastle) by 11 minutes in W50A, Will Kay (WHO) took out M16A and Andrew Dun (HOGs) won M Open B.  

A big thank you to Northern Tablelands for their efforts over the weekend.

You can see all the results, splits and Livelox on our State League page. You can see the updated OY scores here.

Please fill out the very brief Course Setter of the Year survey for each day.

The next SL events are at Wyangala Dam and Roseberg SF on May 14-15.
