Welcome to Newcastle Orienteering Club

Orienteering is a competitive or non-competitive recreational activity in which participants use a detailed map, and usually a compass, to navigate between checkpoints on an unfamiliar course in bush terrain, parkland or urban areas.

If you like a physical and mental challenge while exploring the outdoors, orienteering is the sport for you!

A rather foggy start to the morning eventually turned ito a magnificent day for the running of State League4 at Abernethy near Cessnock.

This event had the luxury of a new map "Brokenback Slopes" created by Newcastle club stalwart Denis Lyons. The area provides a good mix of spur gully with some complex watercourses and even the odd bit of rock.

Bigfoot "veteran" Jock Davis was fastest man over the 9.2 km Red1/2 course while Tracey Bluett was best placed woman on the Red2/3 course.
