The Swan Valley Adventure Centre is situated next to the Swan River in Middle Swan with 89 acres of park and bushland, with several, magnificent old buildings it is a perfect place for a Sprint orienteering map. The Swan River runs alongside the property and Jane Brook runs through the middle of this map, whch was prepared for the Championship.
