MapRun
Smartphone orienteering now in Kent
We now have the first few MapRun courses in Kent, more to follow shortly.
MapRun is a free app that allows you to run a course without any physical infrastructure on the ground (e.g. orienteering timing units) instead your position is recorded by the phones’ GPS. You can run solo anytime and your results can be compared with others.
Orienteer anytime
Use our permanent orienteering courses
Remember to maintain social distancing and be polite to other members of the public when out on your run.
