Why should you try it?
Orienteering is a recreational sport that involves navigating using a map. It's a wonderful way to explore the Red Deer parks and challenge your mind. Whether you're an experienced outdoor enthusiast or just looking for a new way to make your walks more exciting, orienteering is suitable for all skill levels.
We are grateful for the ParticipAction Community Challenge
and the City of Red Deer grants to support us to organize free orienteering events. |
