Big Trig Rogaine

The Big Trig Rogaine offers a unique format mixing team strategy and navigation challenges, set against the scenic backdrop of the Wellington region, near Lower Hutt. Participants form teams of 2 to 5 members to explore diverse terrains that include hillier segments, indicated by the event’s name which references trigonometric points commonly found on hilltops.

Participants have a choice between a 6-hour or a 3-hour course, each featuring up to 50 control points. These points vary in difficulty, accommodating both competitive racers and family groups. Scoring is based on the number of control points visited within the time limit, with verification achieved through answering questions related to specific site features or identifying marked items.

This event is larger in scale compared to regular rogaines organized by Orienteering Hutt Valley, offering a more expansive and engaging experience. The atmosphere is inclusive, encouraging participation across different skill levels and ages, fostering a sense of community and shared adventure.
