Location & Parking
The courses are accessed from the trailhead by the recycling depot on Bunker Rd. See the map pin below for the location.
Courses
- Beginner: 2.0 km following trails
- Advanced: 3.3 km with a lot of off-trail travel and controls
The above distances are as-the-crow-flies. You will travel a bit further.
Orienteering maps are quite detailed so it is very worthwhile reviewing a map legend to ensure you are using the map to it's full potential. Here is a good resource to check out: http://learnorienteering.com/maps.html.
Controls
Controls will be marked with flagging tape.

How it Works
- Register your Sage Orienteering Club membership and for the event (combined registration form, which will prompt you to register for your membership if you haven't yet registered as a member for 2024).
- Download the course maps (as PDFs) from the registration confirmation.
- Print the map, or load the map onto your phone.
- Do the course whenever you want during the time when the event is open. All participants (whether they have a map or not) need to be Sage Orienteering Club members, but it is really, really cheap so invite a friend to come along!
