Reno-Tahoe Orienteers
A Chapter of the Bay Area Orienteering Club
In orienteering, "the thinking sport", you use a map and compass to navigate a course through unfamiliar terrain. People of all ages enjoy orienteering as a leisurely walk in the woods or as a competitive cross-country race.
Newcomers are welcome at all events, held throughout the Reno-Tahoe area. Beginners' courses and instruction are always offered. Learn more.
