Master the fundamentals of finding your way. This course is delivered in two parts, beginning with a deep dive into the essentials of primitive navigation.

What You’ll Learn
In this initial classroom session, we cover the core mechanics of orienteering, including:

Primitive Navigation: Master the foundational skills of direction finding.

Pace Counting: Learn how to accurately track distance on foot.

Azimuth Calculations: Understand how to plot and follow precise bearings.

Gear & Equipment
