Do you want to be able to plan great walks, with beautiful views, prepared for the weather and conditions and feel confident that you won’t get lost? I’ve designed the Find Your Way courses to help you do this. This course is a follow-up to my Find your Way - First Steps and Go Further courses, and this time we’ll be covering more intricate route planning, steeper and more complex terrain, hazards, keeping safe, and precise map reading as well as the use of the compass and other techniques to find your way in poor visibility or in the dark. GPS apps are great until your battery runs out, you get logged out and don’t have signal to log back in, or you drop or drown your phone (all of these have happened to me, thankfully I always have a map to hand and know how to read it!)
By the end of the day you should feel confident in being able to find your way somewhere new in mountain terrain, walk in poor weather or in the dark, and what to do if you become ‘lost’.
These courses are suitable for individuals, small groups, or as additional training for those on formal training schemes.
