Hinchingbrooke Country Park
West Anglian Orienteering Club (WAOC) welcomes you to our Hinchingbrooke Country Park Permanent Orienteering Course.
Details
You may be able to obtain a printed map from the visitor centre/cafe.
Current status (as of 20th June 2020):
*No plaque at the start/finish
*All posts are present and markers are readable
*Markers are on top of posts, not side
*Posts are shorter than usual, so a bit more prone to undergrowth
*Control 9 is now within the wooded area rather than on the edge, so you'll need to look inside
*It is recommended that control 14 is approached from the North/West rather than from the South/East due to nettles
*Control 13 is within a nettle patch during summer
Parking
There is plenty of parking, but please remember to Pay and Display
Course: Hinchingbrooke Score (not MapRun)
Score, no time limit
This course does not use MapRun, so it is not timed and you do not need a phone. At each control site, you will see a red/white coloured plaque with the control number on and a letter. Please write down the letter in the box on your map.
This is a Score course which means you should get as many controls as you can.
There are 15 controls in total. You do not need to get them all and you can visit them in any order.
