Navigation Skills for Runners and Walkers

This is our one day navigation skills course. It is a full day of learning map reading and navigation skills, including route planning, use of map and compass, technological aids, judging pace and distance, and mitigating risks. Suitable for those with little or no previous experience, as well as those with some previous experience looking to refresh and practice their skills.

After a short theoretical session, the majority of the day will be spent learning and practicing navigation out on the ground in a variety of terrain.

There will be maximum student to tutor ration of 6:1 to ensure everyone gets a high level of attention and has their own needs addressed.

The exact location, which will be somewhere in the Peak District, will be informed by where participants are travelling from, and will be confirmed a week prior to the event.

Note: we also run NNAS (National Navigation Award Scheme)…
