ORIENTEERING

Orienteering is the sport of navigating unfamiliar terrains using a map. It is easy to learn but always challenging!

Our Orienteering sessions, here at Black Mountain Activities, are a fantastic team building adventure designed with the objective to locate a series of control points marked on a map, retrieve the clue and get back to the finish line first. During your orienteering session you and your team will be equipped with a map so you can navigate your way around the terrain to find the control points, and the rest is up to you. Walk or run, team work is the key to success with this outdoor activity.

Often called the “thinking sport”, orienteering is sure to exercise both mind and body, and has proven to be a great activity for everyone regardless of age or experience. For the competitive athlete, you can experience the exhilaration of running through the course at top speed, or for the less competitive, enjoy the challenge at a more leisurely pace.

Orienteering takes place on the Begwyns, within the Cambrian Range, just a 10 minute drive from our activity centre in Three Cocks. Easily reachable from Brecon, Hay-on-Wye, Abergavenny & Hereford.

Please Note: This activity requires a minimum of 4 people. Please contact us for further information.
