What is Orienteering?
Let the
team teach you the skills required to navigate yourself or your group around an orienteering course using a map to gain as many points as you can within a given time.
Orienteering is an ideal activity to get a team working together or as a relaxing family day out.
Many people have the impression that orienteering is a less than exciting sport, in fact it's quite the opposite; orienteering is a challenging outdoor adventure activity that will push you to your limits! Give it a go!
are the only company to have a permanent orienteering course set up around Coniston water and the surrounding fells which makes for a great day out in canoes or on foot.
also use many orienteering venues in and around Lancashire within easy reach of Chorley, Preston, Blackburn, Bolton, Rivington, Anglezarke and Manchester.

Dog friendly orienteering- brilliant day!
After a training session on map reading and all the dogs were raring to go, each team set off following the given map and set of clues. Finding the hidden markers at each point, or rather trying to find them as quickly as we could LOL! made a real fun day, and a 4 hour walk for the dog! Dog toys and treats all round at the end. What a great idea. We're (that's humans and dog) are ready for the next one! Definitely recommend. Thanks for a great day Adventure 21!

Canoe orienteering and axe throwing
We are a large group of friends and have been coming to Bowness for different activities with Adventure 21 for many years. We have never been disappointed and always enjoy and have lots of laughs This year we did canoe orienteering and axe throwing and thoroughly enjoyed them both. Can't recommend then highly enough. We will be back again next year without fail.
