The Lodge Forest Visitor Centre, Aberfoyle

Three different orienteering courses (new 2017) based from the visitor centre that offers a variety of physical and technical challenges - something for almost everyone.

Course 1 - Easy - 1.3k.  A fairly simple course for beginners or families with young children. It will probably take about 20-30 minutes with plenty of opportunities to enjoy the forest on the way.

Course 2 - Moderately Difficult - 2.0k.  More challenging and will probably take 30-45minutes unless you spend more time enjoying the forest.

Course 3 - Hard - 2.6k  Challenging navigation and through-the-forest running opportunities make this a great course for the experienced orienteer or someone who really wants to be tested.  Expect to take up to an hour and possibly more.
