Bringing more people, just run as a group, maybe 3 + 1 solo, or 2 teams of 2
(you get the idea!)

Visit as many of the evenings 20 checkpoints as possible, the maps will be issued at registration, take as long as you wish planning your route but, you only have 2 hours!

All managed through the newly updated 'iOrienteering' app; the map, checkpoint locations, start, finish. 
​
Everything in your hand, on your smartphone. 

No need to scan, tag, clip or do anything, you simply move within 2 meters of a checkpoint location, the app will automatically collect the points for you, then you move on to the next... super simple, super fast.
