About Come and Try Orienteering at Saughton Park and Gardens

Listed Under Sport Events / Active Events / Outdoor Events

There will be courses for absolute beginners, improvers and an activity for more experienced orienteers too.

Because of the excellent flat path network at the park we'd love to encourage wheelchair users and those will mobility issues to come and try orienteering with us.
