A collage of four images: Top left shows a map in a grassy area; top right has the words "TECHNIQUES, SERIES, NAVIGATION" overlaying a mountainous landscape; bottom left depicts a scenic view of fields and hills; bottom right features a hand holding a compass. Two people hike along a path bordered by tall grass, heading towards a distant farm building amidst golden crop fields. The sky is bright blue with scattered white clouds. Hills and a forested area are visible in the background, creating a serene rural scene. A map lies open on a grassy field scattered with yellow wildflowers. The background features green rolling hills under a clear sky, giving a serene and pastoral setting. Two individuals are outdoors, engaged in navigating a map. The person on the left wears a bright pink jacket and gloves, while the person on the right, in a hat and dark jacket, looks at the map and holds a compass or phone. They are in an open grassy area with fields in the background. A group of people stand outdoors in a circle, attentively looking at a man pointing at maps. They are dressed in outdoor clothing suitable for hiking or running. Trees, a building, and a fence are visible in the background, suggesting a rural or park setting. A group of people dressed in athletic gear are gathered outdoors. They are looking intently at maps as one person in a cap and jacket makes notes on a map. The background includes trees and a tall stone structure. A group of people jogs down a grassy, slightly muddy path in a hilly countryside landscape. They wear bright athletic clothing and run in a line, with expansive fields and scattered trees under a cloudy sky in the background.

It aims to get you navigating competently and confidently in races or for your own enjoyment. With a small group with plenty of one-to-one alongside group tuition you will have the opportunity to really grasp this skill both theoretically as well as practically.
