If desired, the visiting teacher / leader can run their own orienteering session using the course and we will lend copies of maps and other necessary equipment. There is a single fee of £10 for self led sessions (to cover cours e maintenance) and an indemnity form must be signed.
In addition to orienteering we also run navigation (with compasses) and walking sessions within the 450 acre country park and further afield in the adjacent woodlands and countryside. These can be tailored so that they are suitable for beginners or young people that already have some navigation skills. Most sessions will involve some indoor planning with maps at the Gamekeepers cottage.
Timing: half day, full day, or more than one day.
