Magnetic North Navigation

Night navigation on Kinder Scout. Learning to navigate as the light fades and darkness falls. Pack a headtorch and take spare batteries.

As the nights draw in, it feels even more important to get your map reading skills in place or updated. If you would like to arrange a bespoke course for between 1 and 6 people then do get in touch. All courses take place in Hathersage which is easily accessible by public transport via the Sheffield - Manchester train line or bus from Sheffield. [email protected]

All Peak District navigation training courses and day walks have been suspended until the end of lockdown. Looking forward to getting back out into the hills when the time is right. For now, the local parks are proving a great alternative. Discovering new paths which is always a treat.

We are keeping up with the latest governmnet guidelines as they are updated. Our courses are running from January 2021 with provisions in place to be Covid secure. All courses are run 100% outdoors and with a maximum of 5 participants. Courses are for a minimum of 2 people so if you have a friend or partner from the same household it is an ideal way to get outdoors and learn something new.

Can’t wait to get back out into the Peak District. Courses will restart from 7 December onwards. If you would like to book a slot for one to one or one to two bespoke navigation tuition please get in touch.

Can’t wait to get back out into the countryside? If you’d like to learn some basic map reading skills to help you feel more confident outdoors then why not come on a 1 or 2 day course.

Courses are based in Hathersage in the Peak District.

Learn a new skill in the beautiful Peak District National Park. Why not take the opportunity to spend some time in one of our most popular outdoor spaces and learn something new at the same time. During 2020, many of us have taken up walking as a way to enjoy nature, destress and escape the everyday. Is now the time to explore further by learning to use a map and compass? With some basic skills, you can plan your own routes, feel more confident in the outdoors and reach places that will lift your spirits and senses. Join a small, supportive group and take a step by step approach. If you are keen to explore more and enjoy the benefits of a little tuition then do get in touch. There are 1 and 2 day courses available for all levels from beginner to advanced. The minimum number is 2 /maximum 5. See you in the hills - from December onwards.
