The race
This event features a team-based navigation challenge designed for participants of varying skill levels, taking place in the Wellington region. Teams of 2 to 5 individuals can choose between two time options, allowing for a flexible approach to participation.
The course incorporates up to 50 control points, with some located conveniently for family groups, ensuring accessibility for all ages. Participants aim to maximize their score by visiting these control points within the designated time, confirming their visits by answering straightforward questions related to specific features in the landscape, including man-made structures or coded ribbons.
The event distinguishes itself from typical rogaines offered by Orienteering Hutt Valley by presenting a larger scale and incorporating hilly terrain, which adds an additional layer of challenge and engagement. The exact event center location will be announced closer to the date, ensuring participants are well-informed about logistics in advance. The atmosphere is often characterized by a sense of community and adventure, with participants encouraged to strategize and collaborate within their teams.
