Nelson Orienteering Club invites all orienteers to celebrate 50 years of New Zealand Orienteering Championships
from the 15-18 April 2022.

“I am very pleased to be welcoming everyone to my home region for the 2022 National Orienteering Championships. Nelson Tasman is mainly famous for the weather, but under the blue skies and beaming sunshine, there are vast and wonderful opportunities for intrepid adventurers. With three National Parks surrounding the region, and the blue waters of Tasman Bay, it is simply a paradise for outdoor recreation and pursuits, and that includes orienteering. We have an excellent team working hard to deliver a high quality and memorable event, you won’t want to miss this one, it’ll be the place to be next Easter!”
