Today is a trail orienteering competition

Today’s trail orienteering event is an opportunity to try TrailO and test your map interpretation skills in the intricate dunes of Roseisle. As a rest day activity it does not count towards the main competition.

We are pleased to include trail orienteering as a rest day event, using the middle part of Roseisle which some of you will have visited on yesterday’s courses.

The TrailO event is fully accessible for wheelchairs with registration, start, finish and map collection all near to the Public Car Park.

There will be just one course, fully wheelchair accessible. The classes are Open-senior, Open-junior, P-senior and P-junior. (P=physically challenged) and there will be prizes in each class.

The start window of two hours (from 10:00am until 12:00 noon) is before the sprint race in Forres so that you can take part in both events.


There will be one wheelchair accessible course – this will be Pre-O with a timed control at the start.

Find out more about trail orienteering at the British Orienteering Trail-O website.
