Orienteering

 •   This adventure sport is all about navigating

•   Participants learn to use a Compass and measure distances, so that they can find their way between points laid down on a Route-chart

•   The route is about 2.5 kms long and entails about an hours walk cross-country

•   This is recommended mainly for team building and OBT camps

•   A session costs Rs 600/- per head, plus taxes.  This covers equipment, crew and instructions

•   The Orienteering course is a great activity to use in our OBTs as it can be used to high-light a number of KRAs

•   When used in an OBT we structure the activity using a number of novel methods like configuring the scoring system, constraints on the resources/equipment/time, putting in a whole lot of terms of references which permit you or forbid you to behave in a certain way, or you may have to carry a cumbersome load, or do some other task along the way 

•   In an OBT it’s not the individual skill or effort in the activity that is important. What is of essence is the way in which the team deals with certain situations and issues

•   These reactions of the team are observed by the facilitator and are used to highlight the KRAs and bring out the lessons
