Orienteering Edinburgh is a Scottish Orienteering initiative that aims to attract newcomers to the sport of orienteering whilst also encouraging local workers to get away from their screens and get outside and active during their lunch breaks.
Orienteering is a run with a difference and exercises both mind and body simultaneously. It can be competitive, causal and social and is great for exploring new places.
Now is a great time to be getting involved in orienteering as we are proudly hosting the World Sprint Orienteering Championships in Edinburgh this July!
We offer information on further orienteering opportunities and provide links into the local clubs and events.
Location: Festival Square (Lothian Road) and The Meadows
