Orienteering

Orienteering is a navigational sport where individuals or teams use a map and compass to find specific locations in unfamiliar terrain. Participants start at a designated point and race to locate various checkpoints, marked on their map, within a set time limit. It tests both physical endurance and navigational skills, as competitors must efficiently plan their routes while moving through diverse landscapes, like forests or urban areas. Orienteering can be a competitive sport or a recreational activity, promoting outdoor skills, strategy, and teamwork. It is enjoyed by people of all ages and skill levels worldwide.
