Orienteering involves navigating your way at your own pace between controls, which are marked on a special large scale coloured map. The courses vary in length from less than 2Km to over 12Km and most WAOC events have a "string course", which toddlers and young children can follow safely through the forest.
WAOC puts on a Sunday event almost every month except July and August. Neighbouring clubs do the same and the WAOC newsletter will give details of other clubs events.
Please contact for further information and details of membership and forthcoming events or visit their web-site. WAOC is a member of the British Orienteering Federation and linked to the East Anglian Orienteering Assoc.
