TrailO is a form of Orienteering where participants have to determine which of several flags is at the centre of a circle on the map. It does not involve running, and is designed to allow those with reduced mobility – including wheelchair users – to compete on equal terms with able-bodied participants. At the highest level, TrailO has its own European and World championships.

This event provides the following activities:

  1. TempO, where each task has to be solved in the shortest time possible.
  2. PreO, a walking course for club members around Meldreth. About 1.1 km.
  3. IntrO, a walking course for the public. About 0.8 km.
  4. A run for club members of about 3.5 km.

Directions / Parking

Registration is at the Village Hall, High Street, Meldreth, SG8 6LB. There is a car park at the rear of the hall.
