The home of Orienteering for Macarthur, Liverpool and the Southern Highlands of NSW
Orienteering is an adventurous, action-packed sport where competitors navigate themselves by map and compass. Traditionally a bush sport, modern orienteering sees participants sprinting through cities, traversing suburbs, and exploring our local bushland.
Every event is a race, and an individual adventure all of its own.
Come and adventure with SHOO.
