The North West Rogaine Series, held annually during winter, features a unique navigation challenge at Leighton’s Farm, set in the scenic South Head region. This event encourages participants of all skill levels to engage in a 90-minute foot rogaine, where they navigate through varied terrain using a map and compass.
Rogainers have the flexibility to visit checkpoints in any sequence, with each checkpoint assigned varying point values. This format allows for strategic planning, as participants aim to maximize their scores within the time limit. The atmosphere is often characterized by a sense of community, with both novices and seasoned participants sharing tips and experiences.
The series promotes inclusivity and fosters a spirit of camaraderie among participants, making it a notable experience in the local running calendar.
