Checkpoint Challenges

About Checkpoint Challenges

Do you enjoy hiking or long walks in the park but also want to keep your mind stimulated?

Checkpoint Challenges will take you off the beaten path for an outdoor adventure like no other. Choose your own route between the marked points while perfecting 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.

This was a really cool way to explore the park and it took me places I never would have gone otherwise!
Sophia
Great idea! Can't wait to see more locations added.
James
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 :-)

Researchers found that running increased lactate, BDNF and memory to a greater degree than walking. Spatial memory skills, in particular, increased the most in those who ran while orienteering. The more vigorous the orienteering, the greater the benefits. Remarkably, even a single orienteering session improved spatial memory in our study participants.
