| Summary | Part parkland (including gardens) and part technical woodland with good contour and rock detail. Technically difficult for night orienteering. |
| Notes |
Navigation at night is for the intrepid or experienced only. Any juniors under 16 must be accompanied by an adult - it is much more challenging than during daylight hours. Long course: 4.0km, 160m The long course has a map flip. Please check your control codes very carefully - there are a lot of controls in a small area. SI Air will be enabled. First start is at 17:45 and courses will close at 20:00 sharp. You must go to the download car even if you do not finish the course. There are a lot of high fences. Open gates are marked on the map and must be used. Climbing high fences means disqualification. |
| Difficulty rating | 5/10 Paths through mostly runnable forest with some rough parts |
