Saturday Orienteering Series

Davidson Park, Forestville

🎯 Ready to level up your weekend?

Whether you're a seasoned speedster or simply keen to try something new, Saturday Orienteering Series is calling.

During our term 2 of events we head into some of Sydney's favourite park locations. Come along and discover the best of the outdoors in Sydney and maybe a few cafes and local specialties along the way.

Our final event for the term is in a wonderful location: Davidson Park. It's a beautiful waterside setting with open grassed parkland and plenty of shady trees. We will set up a maze too for some quick dashes through twists and turns and there will be plenty of opportunities to nail a clean sweep through the maze. Plus, as it's our final gathering before the school holidays, we will light the bbq. We hope that you can join us for a post run celebratory picnic and chat.

Note that there is a National Park park entry fee of $8 per vehicle payable on the day.

👟 How you roll is up to you:

• Go solo and chase that perfect clean run

• Team up with your crew

• Or bring the fam for a relaxed group adventure.

💡 No experience? No worries.

We’ve got maps, beginner-friendly courses, and free tips to get you started. Just rock up in comfy activewear and bring your curiosity. That’s it.

🌿 Saturdays = fresh air, fun vibes, and a bit of sneaky navigation.
