Orienteering Raleigh NC

Backwoods Orienteering Klub, founded November 15, 1978 sponsors events and teaches orienteering in the North Carolina piedmont, around Raleigh, NC.

We invite you to try orienteering with us. Everyone is welcome at all our events. We always offer beginning, intermediate, advanced and expert courses (routes through the woods) at every Regular event.

Advanced event at Birkhead 07 10 2012

Next event will be in Birkhead (Birkhead Wilderness Area, Uwharrie National Forest, Asheboro NC). We will start from Thornburg Farm parking lot . Consider that not much parking room is out there, so carpooling is encouraged.

The start is at noon. It takes about 2 hours to commute from Raleigh.

We will have a full advanced spectrum of courses, from Brown to Blue (closer to Ultraviolet). To participate, you need to complete one of the advanced courses during our regular event and be a Klub member.  If you have not renewed your membership or would like to join, you are welcome to do so. We also prefer not to deal with the rental equipment during the training events, but if you don’t own a finger stick, but wish to participate, let me know in advance.

Please pre-register by Saturday, as described in the Pre-Registration page.
