Orienteering is a group of sports that requires navigational skills using a map and compass to navigate from point to point in diverse and usually unfamiliar terrain whilst moving at speed. Participants are given a topographical map, usually a specially prepared orienteering map, which they use to find control points.
The team building activity includes a shot brief on the navigational techniques, terrain and land details, the use of the map and compass: teams will compete in an orienteering competition in the woods.
