North West Rogaine Series 3: Woodhill Forest

The North West Rogaine Series takes place annually during the winter months, culminating in a final event that features a 90-minute foot rogaine. This format allows participants of all skill levels, from beginners to seasoned rogainers, to engage in an adventurous challenge.

Competitors navigate through varied terrain using a map and compass, choosing their route to visit checkpoints that are assigned different point values. The scoring system encourages strategic planning, as participants aim to maximize their points within the time limit.

The atmosphere fosters community involvement, as this event also includes the Auckland Schools Rogaine Championships, encouraging local schools to participate and engage in outdoor navigation activities. The setting in Woodhill Forest adds a scenic backdrop, enhancing the overall experience for all involved.
