Overview
This years National Three-Day Orienteering Carnival is being held in the Loddon Shire region, an area that is well known to most orienteers for Kooyoora, the location of WOC 1985 and WMOC 2002. Our aim is to deliver an enjoyable experience for all orienteers with high quality enjoyable maps and courses, encompassing Dredge & Sluice Mining, Reef Mining, Granite, and Spur Gully terrain.
For all orienteers except NOL competitors, the carnival consists of three multi-day length courses, plus the prologue on the Friday. The NOL competition retains the sprint prologue/ middle/long/relay distance format.
There is plenty to explore in the Loddon Shire, so allow some time to take in places and activities around the region.
