Entries:
Pre-entries are strongly preferred, with only limited entry on the day so long as we have maps. On-line entries will remain open until very close to the event. Pre-entering ensures you have a map and greatly simplifies things on the day, which on a potentially cold night in November can be no bad thing. Entry fees are £8 for adults (£9 for non-BOF members), £4 for juniors (under 21) and students.
If you are a newcomer to the sport and do not have a an orienteering dibber (to record visiting the controls, also called an SI-Card) then please indicate that you need to borrow an SI-Card.
Courses:
The usual range of NWNL courses i.e. Orange (2.3 km, 60m climb), Green (3.6km 120m climb) and Blue (5.4 km 200m climb).
Controls (including the finish) are in beacon mode so they can be punched contactlessly if you have a SIAC. This does not apply to the dibbers available for hire.
