Are you looking to improve your off-trail navigation skills? Need to be more confident in poor conditions? Our Navigation for Trail Runners course run for small groups and individuals.
We run this course from our base in the Brockagh Centre, Glendalough, Co. Wicklow. A short indoor session is included but most of the time is spent outdoors on the hill.
We run this course on set dates throughout the year or we can run it privately for you if you have a group of 4 to 6 people.
The course covers:
Trips can be as easy going or difficult as you like and we can offer two grades each day if you have mixed fitness in your group.
We provide all maps and compasses for use during the course.
This course is lead by highly qualified and experienced International Mountain Leaders who love to share their passion for the mountains.
Trail runners who have some experience in the mountains but want to learn how to look after themselves in remote areas and poor conditions.
This is a fantastic opportunity to learn the skills required to navigate off trail in poor conditions on the mountains.
This is normally a one day course. We also have a 2 day option that is available for private bookings.
This is not an opportunity to try trail running! You need to have a reasonable amount of trail running in the mountains.
We’ll provide a full kit list in advance. You will be stationary for long periods so you’ll to bring more kit than you would normally on your run.
We work on a ratio of 1:6.
We certainly can! There is a minimum charge of 4 people.
