About this service
Orienteering is a sport involving navigation between locations known as controls, usually using specially developed maps. The challenge is to find the best route in the quickest time. It does not matter how young, old or fit you are, you can run, walk or jog, you decide your own pace. You are able to start orienteering at a level which suits you, and progress at your own rate.
Orienteering can take place anywhere from remote forest and countryside to urban parks or school playgrounds. The most challenging orienteering takes place in remote areas which have testing terrain and fewer paths.
South East Lancashire Orienteering Club (SELOC) is an orienteering club primarily covering the northern districts of Greater Manchester - Salford, Wigan, Bolton, Bury, Rochdale, Oldham and surrounding areas.
