A tranquil oasis in the heart of Sydney’s northern suburbs awaits this week. We have a lovely bushland setting by the river with a bbq available for lunch after running. Some of the Bold Horizons team will be staying on for a bbq, so please stay on, relax and enjoy some leisure time with fellow outdoor enthusiasts.
Pre-entry by 12pm on the Thursday before each event is strongly preferred please. Entry on the day is available subject to map availability. Secure your map by entering early!

There’s more information on courses available on the Saturday Orienteering Series page.
