Navigation Training Weekend - ​Bronze NNAS Navigator Award

OutdoorLads is pleased to be able to offer a very limited number of heavily discounted places on this 2-day outdoor skills course from MountainXperience held in the Peak District.

This is a great opportunity to develop your basic map reading skills with this discounted professional outdoor course held in the Peak District.

Cover essential map reading skills on this two day course where you'll learn how to use 'handrail features' like paths and walls to guide you along your way as well learning how to measure distance, understand grid references and plan your own routes. You’ll also learn the basics of how to use a compass and how to use it with your map to ensure you don’t get lost. The Bronze Award will take you from relying on friends or guidebooks to being able to plan a walk and follow it successfully.

The National Navigation Award Scheme (NNAS) is a personal performance scheme for all ages to learn navigation skills and gain confidence to get out and enjoy the countryside. Their Navigator Awards give lovers of the outdoors, whatever their sport, age or fitness, the freedom to explore the paths, trails, hills and mountains of Britain. Progress through the Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards to take you from being an absolute map and compass novice to become an expert navigator.

The course will run from 9am to 4pm on both Saturday and Sunday and you must attend both days in full to be eligible for the award. This course is being offered to ODL at a more than 50% discount on public prices. The cost will be £60 + £8 course fee. After signing up, members will be messaged with instructions on how to book direct with MountainXperience.

This course will be led by an OutdoorLads Leader and run jointly with his own outdoor business so there will be non-ODL members on the course with you. Places are very limited so please only sign up if you're certain you're able to attend.

If you're not local to the Peak District you'll need to arrange your own accommodation nearby.
