Orienteering is more than sport - it is a way to combine movement, navigation, teamwork, inclusion and care for the environment.
In this course, you will learn how to design your own orienteering race - whether it is walking, running, or cycling orienteering race. By the end, you will be able to:
- Understand the basic principles of course design

- Work with maps, checkpoints, and navigation tools.
- Create races that are fun, safe, inclusive, and eco-friendly.
Orienteering is not just about designing a course—it’s also about preparing everything around the event so that participants have a safe, enjoyable, and inclusive experience. A well-prepared race can turn a simple activity into a community celebration of sport, teamwork, and sustainability.

- Understand how to plan and manage race-day logistics.
- Set up the course, checkpoints, and timing system.
- Ensure the safety and well-being of all participants.
- Create a welcoming and inclusive environment.
Orienteering does not end at the finish line. What happens after the race is just as important as what happens before and during. Post-race activities help consolidate learning, celebrate achievements, and strengthen both social bonds and environmental responsibility.

- Organize post-race feedback and reflection activities.
- Celebrate participants and volunteers inclusively.
