UBOC - University of Bristol Orienteering and Fell Running Club -
competes in local, national and international orienteering events.
Orienteering is a sport for people who enjoy challenge and adventure.
The aim is to navigate around a set course using a map as fast as
possible.
We travel all over the country and even the world, orienteering in
forests, over moors and through cities. We've got lots of trips lined
up this year - come join us! Many of our members enjoy fell running as
a hobby and as great physical training for orienteering. We support
members who want to take part in local fell races, including in the
Mendips and South Wales, and provide the option to go for a fell run
on our training weekends which take us across the country from
Cornwall to the Lake District.
The club meets up regularly for training, socials and competitions.
Our members cover the full range of ability and experience. Everyone
is welcome!
We have two types of membership; a free social membership and a full membership.
Free social membership lets you attend our Monday Night Runs and Socials! Remember, you can attend our introduction to orienteering training course for free in the first 4 weeks before having to buy our full membership to join our trainings and weekend events.
Full membership costs £15 for the year and gives you access to our training sessions, weekend events and 15% off at our sponsor Alpkit Bristol. Make sure to buy this before attending training sessions (after you've come to our free introduction to orienteering course in the first 4 weeks of term!).
