Saturday 15th February: Nairn East Beach
Welcome to Nairn’s East Beach. We offer you a pleasant day orienteering near Inverness with a range of courses to suit all ages and abilities including beginners, however paths are unsuitable for pushchairs.
Terrain / Planner’s Comments: Generally level terrain so all courses have negligible climb, with a few ups and downs. Terrain is predominantly pine forest on sand dunes, some grassland and open sand dunes. The pockets of gorse are thick, so don’t bother. There is a good path network. There is a rising spring tide on the morning of event, and courses have been planned to account for this.
Congratulations to the North for winning the Inter-Area relays at Keppernach in October:
North 72 points (Open 28, Girls 44)
West 56 points (Open 28, Girls 28)
East 24 points (Open 24, Girls 0)
