Orienteering at school for ages 13-15, Chapter 43: MICRO AND NIGHT ORIENTEERING

 MICRO AND NIGHT ORIENTEERING

Micro Orienteering

Micro Orienteering is something you can implement in a very, very small area. Suitable areas can be playgrounds, small groves, small parks or the map of Strömstad (below), part of the harbour park. At the Micro Orienteering you will be forced to focus on the map and its details. It covers very short distances between the controls and it is easy to act hastily. Perfect learning to that can be transferred from the terrain to the map and vice versa.

Night Orienteering

A challenging adventure in the dark. An easy course along a handrail with checkpoints on or close to the handrail. Suitable to implement in connection with overnight activities. All participating pairs need to have flashlights or headlamps. Reflective controls.
