Combine a sporting activity with a challenge of logic and spatial reference and you get orienteering.
Orienteering is best known on foot. But it can also be done by bike or on skis!
The bonus? Orienteering is accessible to everyone, because you can choose the difficulty of the course to suit your level.
For the more competitive, the aim is to complete the course as quickly as possible.
With the help of a map and a compass, you’ll need to find a number of markers that will enable you to map out your route. At the markers, remember to punch your way through.

To get the most out of orienteering, we recommend :
– a good pair of trainers 👟
– a compass (you can also use the one on your mobile phone) 🧭
– a map of the route 🗺️
– a bottle of water 💧
– a stopwatch if you want to challenge yourself ⏱️
At the Tourist Office reception desk, you can pick up several orienteering maps to suit your level and preferences:
