Summer Series 2024 - Event 3

Courses will be mostly confined to this end of the overall Curragh map. The long course may cross the hollow road, in which case be mindful of sporadic traffic.
Whether you are a complete novice, a family, or a seasoned veteran, there is a course to suit:
The Adventure Course is suitable for families or beginners.
The Medium course is suitable for experienced orienteers and adult beginners and improvers who can cope with some off-track forest running/walking.
The Long course is suitable for adult improvers and experienced people who are good at map reading and compass skills.
Three (3) courses are planned as follows:
Adventure (~3km)
Medium (~5km)
Long (~7km)
Climb is negligible on all courses.
