Calderstones Park Permanent Course. A compass can be useful too. Club events use nylon flags to mark the control points, but this course uses wooden posts painted with orange and white stripes near the top.
Every post shows a three figure number.
This is repeated on the map beside the circle round the control. This is to prove that you have been there. There are 41 controls in total, but each suggested course will visit a selection of controls in a set order. You can make up your own course to suit you if you wish. Orienteering is a low risk sport, but clothing and footwear must be suitable for the weather and time of year.
