My beginner course will teach you how to navigate safely, efficiently and confidently.
This is a practical course taught at a walking pace so do not worry about your running ability level. Throughout the day we progress through a range of activities where you will build on skills step by step, immediately putting what you learn into practice.
We will cover: orientating the map, reading the ground, using your surroundings to locate yourself on the map, following a route on a map and using the compass to take a bearing to check direction. By the end of this session you will be able to confidently follow a fell or trail race route.
Course fee is £60 per person.
