Orienteering Belfast – Explore the Outdoors at Lorne Estate

Lorne Orienteering

Discover Orienteering at Lorne Estate

Discover the excitement of Orienteering at Lorne Estate, where adventure and exploration go hand in hand. Orienteering is an outdoor activity that blends navigation, problem solving, and physical movement; perfect for schools, youth groups, families, and team-building events.

Set within Lorne’s beautiful natural grounds, with a mix of woodland paths, open lawns, and hidden checkpoints, orienteering here offers a truly immersive outdoor experience.

Groups & Schools

Group sessions begin at a central meeting point for a quick prep and safety check. Participants get a short intro to orienteering, plus fun map games to learn key skills.

After a safety briefing, everyone splits into smaller teams, receives a map, and sets off to find checkpoints, navigate terrain, and work together. It’s adventurous, energetic, and always full of fun!

For school orienteering days, the experience becomes more structured and educational. Pupils start with a classroom-style intro to map reading and navigation, then move into “Star Orienteering” to build confidence in finding checkpoints.

They progress from short, simple routes to longer, timed courses with scoring, ideal for measurable learning outcomes. This format develops navigation skills, spatial awareness, independence, and teamwork for a rich and interactive outdoor learning experience.
