Top End Orienteers

OY event

Casuarina Coastal Reserve

This is a full punch card event

Sunday, 5 July 2026

Come and join us for Mountain bike orienteering at Casuarina Coastal Reserve and surrounds. This is similar to foot orienteering but on a bike and all controls are accessible from bicycle trails, tracks, roads or clearings. The courses mostly use flatter parts of the reserve but on harder courses there are some more technically challenging sections north of the hospital. The easy course can be completed by beginners who have had some previous experience riding off road.
