Orienteering is a sport that exercises your mind as well as your body. It has sometimes been called "Cunning Running", "Hiking With a Purpose", or "The Thinking Sport".

Orienteering challenges you to read a map while crossing streams, climbing hills, or hiking along scenic trails. On your map are marked locations (control points) that you must visit. Your job is to figure out the best way to get from control point to control point. At each control point you will find a red and white marker and a unique paper punch that will prove that you were there. Just punch your card and go on to the next control point.

Orienteering is open to people of all ages and athletic abilities. Some people like to run like a hare while others like to take their time and enjoy the scenery. Beginners activities are available at every event and free instruction is available for the asking.

The NorthEastern Ohio Orienteering Club organizes orienteering events for foot, cross-country ski, bicycle, and canoe. We even organize an endurance form of orienteering called Rogaine. [Nope, that's not the hair tonic. The name was coined in Australia before the hair tonic came along.]

The NorthEastern Ohio Orienteering Club was formed in 1976 and is a chartered member of the United States Orienteering Federation.
