Leuke namiddag beleefd waarbij verschillende navigatietechnieken dienden gebruikt te worden. Succesvol dankzij de briefing die we op voorhand kregen. Een echte teambuilding waarbij samenwerking en strijd tussen de verschillende groepjes aan bod kwamen.

What do we teach you?
We teach you the fundamentals of map reading and compass use that you can confidently apply during your own outdoor adventures. Through hands-on practice sessions, we head out into the field and simulate typical navigation scenarios.
For example:
-
Which elements can you find on the map and which ones can you recognize in the landscape around you?
-
How do you determine your position?
-
How do you interpret contour lines?
-
How do you set a viewing or walking direction?
-
How do you calculate walking distance?
-
What are the coordinates of a specific point?
-
Which routes are the most enjoyable, most challenging, or most idyllic for hiking or running?
-
How do you navigate without prominent landmarks?
-
And what if it’s dark?
Game or competition format?
We divide participants into small groups and send them out. They work together to find multiple points in the area using all sorts of fun navigation tasks. The group decides whether it will be a game, competition, walking, or running activity.
