orienteering

ACTIVITY

An important survival skill brought to life through play, orienteering has each accommodation group starting from their own point on the property before working together to find checkpoints hidden across the Nanga bush. Following a series of clues and directions, teams put their navigation and map reading skills to the test while building collaboration, communication and quick decision making along the way. Students are always accompanied by instructors and travel along marked paths with set checkpoints, so it feels like a genuine adventure while staying firmly within a safe, supervised environment.

Duration: Allow 1.5 hours
