Everyone's Welcome to Try Orienteering at College Woods (UNH)

Everyone's Welcome to Try Orienteering at College Woods (UNH)

Up North Orienteers invites everyone to come try orienteering at College Woods in Durham on Sunday, May 3rd. Participants may register and start any time between 10 AM and 12:30 PM.

Orienteering is a sport that involves navigating between points using a map and compass. Think of it as treasure hunting in the woods if you like. It is easy to learn and fun for all ages. Experienced orienteers will be on hand at College Woods, on the campus of UNH, to help newcomers learn the basics and get started on their first beginner's course. You can take part individually or as part of a group – it's a great activity for family or friends!

May is a wonderful time to explore the beauty of the Seacoast's forests and the UNH campus. And orienteering is the perfect recreation activity to help you do just that. Don't miss this opportunity for a memorable day outdoors.

Additional information, including directions to the parking and assembly areas, may be found at the Up North Orienteers web site, https://upnoor.org/event/college-woods-durham-2/ . Questions may be sent to the event organizer, Ernst Linder, at elinder@unh.edu
