Courses

Long Score 60 mins
Suitable for more experienced orienteers - 60 minute score, penalties award for each minute or part minute you are late back after the 60 minutes. 22 controls 90-111.

Special rule! Once you have visited a control, the next control has to be one with a higher number, to score.
To get the maximum score (220 points) the controls would have to be visited in sequence 90-91-92……110-111-Finish, within 60 minutes. On the Long course map this sequence will be shown with a dashed line between the controls.

You may miss controls out, to get your best score within 60 minutes! So 92-95-99-102-103-106-109-Finish is fine (70 points)

Short Score 60 mins
60 minute score suitable for beginners, family groups and those looking to cover a shorter distance. There are 22 controls numbered 90 – 111; visit as many as you can. 10 points per control, 5 points penalty per minute/part minute beyond 60 minutes.
