About Checkpoint Challenges

Are you passionate about hiking or walking in the park but also looking to challenge your mind?

Checkpoint Challenges offers an unmatched outdoor adventure experience. Plot your unique course between checkpoints while working on your map reading skills!

Orienteering in the modern era...

Similar to traditional orienteering, each course is a series of points marked on a map that must be visited in order. Participants select their own paths between checkpoints, ultimately returning to the Start. However, instead of a large paper map, your phone displays only the current course segment with an integrated compass, progress updates, and hints to keep you from getting lost.

You choose the time and the pace...

Our courses are available whenever you are, eliminating the need to wait for a club event. Participate competitively, with rankings for each leg of the course, or enjoy as a recreational activity. This enriching outdoor pursuit is perfect for any active person or group of adventurers.

Yes, I got lost, but I was soon back on track! I loved the whole experience but especially the helpful warning when I got too far off course :-)
