Orienteering is a sport where you use a map to find marked points in order. You can do it alone or with a team, walking or running outdoors.
In the picture
- The map: paths, trees, and a printed course to follow.
- The thumb compass: its needle points to north.
- The control flag: a white-and-orange marker at a point on the course.
- The purple line: the route from the triangle through the control circles to the double circle.
Examples
- At a school sports day, you check the map before running to the next flag.
- On a family walk, you follow a map to find hidden markers along a trail.
Key takeaways
- A map and compass help you know where you are and where to go.
