ORIENTEERING

Orienteering is a sport that requires navigational skills using a map and compass to navigate from point to point in different and usually unfamiliar terrain, and normally moving at speed. It can be enjoyed as a walk in the woods or as a competitive sport.

In the last society I chose orienteering society because I have never done this sport before. When the activity leaders showed it to me, I was very impressed.  Everyone wore sport clothes and sport shoes. The activity leaders gave us maps, pens and papers and explained what to do. We have to run and navigate ourselves to different locations. There is a piece of paper in each location. When we found them we wrote on the paper to show we had been there. I think orienteering is a very good sport to learn new skills it is also healthy however it is exhausting at the same time.
