The club Southern Highlands Orienteering or SHOO as it is affectionately known was formed in 1986. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Southern Highlands Orienteering promotes Orienteering in the Macarthur and Liverpool area of Sydney as well as the Southern Highlands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The club hosts both urban and bush events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One series that is held is the Highland Forest Series (HFS). This series encourages a transition from the street \/ park style orienteering to the bush. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The courses range from easy ( following paths and fences etc) to hard requiring detailed compass and cross -country navigation.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

The second event in the series will be held on May 26th as part of World Orienteering Week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will be held on the Mount Alexandra Map at Welby via Mittagong about an hour to an hour and a half outside of Sydney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By holding the event as part of this week the club hopes to entice newcomers to orienteering as well as those who have only done Street style Orienteering offering a different experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every event counts!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
