Orienteering, or woodland sport, consists in a predefined path characterized by checkpoints called “lanterns” (a pole with stamp), and with the exclusive help of a very detailed topographic map on reduced scale (from 1:4.000 to 1:15,000) which contains details of the path to be traveled.
The scenario will be the surrounding woods and environments. A standard route is made up by the departure and control points, indicated by circles (localized in the object to be found), joined together by imaginary lines (each athlete will decide the route by himself or in a group) and characterized by numbers indicating the travel order, and a point of arrival. This program is recommended for developing motor activities such as running, as well as group activities.
