Navigation skills

Navigation skills refer to the ability to determine your position and plan a route to reach a specific destination. This involves understanding maps, using tools like compasses or GPS devices, recognizing landmarks, and assessing terrain. Good navigation allows individuals to move efficiently and safely through unfamiliar environments, whether on foot, in vehicles, or at sea. These skills combine spatial awareness with problem-solving, enabling people to adapt when conditions change and find their way even without obvious routes. Effective navigation is essential for safety, efficiency, and confidence in exploring new or complex areas.
