Checkpoint Challenges

About Checkpoint Challenges

Are you a fan of hiking or taking long walks in the park but like to keep your mind engaged as well?

Embark on a one-of-a-kind outdoor adventure with Checkpoint Challenges where you will forge your own trail between checkpoints while honing your map reading skills!

Contemporary Orienteering...

Just like in classic orienteering, each course comprises a sequence of points on a map that must be visited sequentially. Participants determine their own routes between these checkpoints and eventually return to the Start. However, rather than using a full-size paper map, your smartphone will show only the current map segment with a built-in compass, progress tracking, and hints to help you stay on track.

Enjoy whenever you want at your own pace...

There is no need to wait for a club meet as our courses are available whenever you are. Enjoyed as either a competitive sport, with rankings for each leg of the course, or a recreational activity, this enriching outdoor pursuit is prefect for any active person or group of adventurers.

Scientists find unusual outdoor activity can help stave off dementia. Researchers studied orienteering, an outdoor sport that exercises mind and body and can also train the brain, helping fight cognitive decline. Now scientists say that the sport - which draws on athleticism, navigational skills and memory - could be useful as an intervention or preventive measure to fight cognitive decline related to dementia.
