Sunday 7th May
For the first bush orienteering of the season we head back to the Helena Valley and onto the Malmalling map. With plenty of rock and abundant grass trees and few hills the area is an ideal return the bush. Much of the area offers good open runability as it was many years ago a farm which has left it without too much undergrowth. What a great place to start your Western Australian bush orienteering for 2017.
Instructors are available at each event to guide newcomers through the registration process and help you get started on the right course for your level of ability and fitness. Families and groups are welcome.
