Navigation for Hill Walkers (1 day)

This day is designed to help all hill walkers master the skills needed to navigate around the mountains. Time will be spent learning how to read maps with confidence as well as how to use a compass and GPS as navigation tools. We will also look at a number of navigation techniques to help get you from A to B without getting lost.

If you prefer, upgrading or learning your navigation skills can be combined with an ascent of one or more or the local fells of your choice! So if you are staying in the Eden Valley, Ullswater, Keswick area and want to learn more about navigating the fells in this beautiful area then why not contact Eden Outdoor Adventures to help you upgrade your skills and have a great day out at the same time?
