By popular demand, both Alvie and Uath Lochan remain available. Most controls have been moved; packs are available via the usual means.
Uath Lochan is a superb planted forest with technical detail, contours that range from precipitous to vague, stunning views and excellent wildlife. Courses include particular themed training suggestions.
Alvie was of course used for Spey 2007, and it’s lovely. Some controls have been moved, particularly those north of the deer fence. Stalking might be going on, so please do NOT go beyond the high fence.
Each map pack comprises a pre-printed map (on Pretex), control descriptions (pictorial) and an information sheet. The information sheet includes a particular training activity that we recommend.
Packs are available from Glenmore Lodge reception or we can post one out to you, simply contact the National O Centre.
Packs are £3 each. Please add 70p towards postage for one pack, £1.20 for 2-5 packs, £1.70 for 6-10 packs.
You can also join our new subscription scheme - just send a cheque for £37 (inc. postage) and we’ll send you maps for the next 10 months.
If you’d like to orienteer for free on these lovely areas, that can be your reward for collecting controls or planning and putting them out. Please contact the National O Centre if you’d like to take up this offer.
