Basic Map Reading & Navigation Training
Time to stop being 'navigationally challenged'
The Sunnywood Project is passionate about the benefits the great outdoors have on our physical and mental well-being. This event is for those with little or no navigation experience and is just as much about experiencing and promoting a love for the great outdoors as it is learning a new skill.
Demystifying the map and building confidence
Our Basic Map-Reading and Navigation Course is perfect for those preparing for events that require some navigation skill, those that just want to venture that little bit further, as well as those looking for a refresher.
Designed with runners and hikers in mind
Led by experienced and qualified instructors on Holcombe Moor
Covers on-path and off-path navigation
What you will learn:
• How to orientate your map • How to identify land features on an OS map
• How to navigate to a location using a compass • How to estimate distance and pace
• How to navigate to a location using land features • How to read the landscape and the map
And, of course, all the proceeds go towards funding our Youth Programmes and Community Activities.
