Virtual Orienteering Courses
Orienteering anytime using a smartphone
MapRun is a free app that allows you to run a course without any physical infrastructure on the ground - instead your position is recorded by the phones’ GPS. You can run solo or as a group anytime and your time can be compared with others.
Permanent Orienteering Courses (POCs)
Orienteering anytime
These courses have permanent markers at control points (also known as check points) with a code and an orienteering logo attached. All the controls are shown on an overprinted orienteering map that you can download from the Saxons or British Orienteering or in most cases obtain on site.
