This year's competition will be hosted at the Touch Estate on Saturday 8 February 2025 and promises to be a thrilling opportunity to showcase your orienteering skills. 

The forest itself, is a mix of mature deciduous and plantation, runnable with highly complex terrain. The longer courses will include several legs on the exposed muir above the forest.  The area was last used in 2015 and has recently been re-mapped by Martin Bagness. This a great opportunity to run a high quality course in superb woodland and terrain.

The terrain is tough in places and the route to the start for most courses includes a steep bank on slippery ground.  Courses are planned as appropriate for the age categories within theconstraints of the terrain.  Jackets, whistles and spare torches will be mandatory, there will be a kit check.
