The University of Plymouth Orienteering Team invites you to take on an unforgettable challenge: a full crossing of Dartmoor. This event will test your navigation, endurance, and teamwork as you traverse one of the UK’s most rugged and beautiful landscapes.

Starting on the edge of the moor, participants will navigate their way across open heathland, granite tors, and hidden valleys, using map and compass to guide their route. Whether you are an experienced orienteer or looking to push your limits in a supportive team environment, this crossing offers a unique opportunity to develop your skills while experiencing the wild beauty of Dartmoor.

Expect a day of adventure, problem-solving, and camaraderie, with stunning views and a true sense of achievement at the finish. Join us for an epic journey across one of Britain’s most iconic national parks.
