Event Details
Location

This event is being held on the army orienteering area known as 'Barossa' and Poors Allotments and has not been used for a civilian orienteering event since 2016. It is just North of Camberley and West of Bagshot.

Map

Terrain This area provides an interesting mix of forested and open sections with many path networks. There are an abundance of pits and depressions throughout. In late January the bracken is low, giving mostly fast running in all sections. For this event, we are including an extra non-army area on the East side. This part is heavily contoured, with many gullies, not available at other times of year.
Courses All details of courses, start times and course closure will be available on Racesignup.
