Together with Waikato orienteering Karioi is hosting its very first Rugged Rogaine on the 24 May – and it’s shaping up to be a good one.
If you’ve never tried rogaining before, think of it as a giant treasure hunt for all ages. Using a map, you’ll navigate your way around checkpoints, collecting points as you go. The challenge? Maximising your score within your chosen time (2 or 4 hours) – without being late back. It’s not always the fastest or fittest who wins, but those who plan well and work together.
This event is as much about the experience as it is about the competition. Expect plenty of laughs, a bit of strategy, and the chance to explore some incredible corners of Mount Karioi – including access to private farmland generously opened up just for this event. The views alone are worth it.
Whether you run, jog or walk, go solo or as a team, everyone can take part – no matter your fitness level. New to navigation? Training can be arranged to get you started.
Even better, this event is a fundraiser for the Karioi Project, meaning your entry fee goes straight back into local conservation.
So grab some friends or bring the family – and come discover Karioi in a whole new way.
