Why Do A Navigation Course
If you are a novice, experienced hiker or club member you are sure to have wondered ‘where am I now’. If you take one of my navigation courses you will learn how to answer that question. We will start with the fundamental skills of observation, planning and map reading. You will also learn how to choose the right route to suit your skills and the conditions. Because the courses I offer are designed for you skill and confidence levels will rise and you will be happy to explore off the beaten path to see what lies over the next hill. It’s great to have the confidence to plan a day out for your friends, family or club members. Get in touch with me to discuss the various courses that I offer.
