About Checkpoint Challenges

Do you enjoy walking in the park or going on hikes but want to keep your mind active at the same time?

Get ready for an outdoor adventure like no other with Checkpoint Challenges. Create your own route between the marked points while refining your map reading abilities!

A new version of Orienteering......

Like traditional orienteering, each course consists of a sequence of points marked on a map that must be visited in sequence. Participants choose their own route between the checkpoints, eventually returning back to the Start location. However, instead of a full-size paper map, your smartphone will only show you the current map segment with an intergated compass along with details on your progess and hints to prevent you getting lost.

Select your own time and pace...

No need to wait for club meetings as our courses are available whenever you're ready. Engage in competitive action with rankings for each leg or enjoy as a recreational activity. This enriching outdoor pursuit is perfect for any active person or adventurous group.

Remarkably, even a single orienteering session improved spatial memory in our study participants. This suggests that participating in orienteering, even infrequently, could enhance spatial abilities, with the potential to delay their decline with age.
