Planners Notes:
Remove all your valuables from the car, and don't flash your headlights at anyone in this car park, because this week we're off to Walkmill community woodland.
A new area for WCOC, it was mapped for last year but permissions got revoked last min and the event never happened.
The running is a pleasant blend of chilled out plantation, speedy pathways, and the occasional bog to spice things up a bit (No dry feet here!).
I was quite surprised at the variety on offer, I think it makes quite a good pre Christmas venue.
Cheers, Dan
New to Night Orienteering?
- You need to bring a decent head torch (and maybe a spare and/or spare battery) and make sure to dress appropriately for the weather.
- The events up to Christmas are on easier areas so are suitable for those trying night orienteering for the first time.
- Younger and/or inexperienced orienteers should be accompanied.
