Map Trekking is a sport based on the use of a map and compass.  Using only the map and compass, how many “checkpoints” can you, or you and your team find?  The checkpoints vary in navigational difficulty and point value - it’s up to you to decide which you want to find.  Whether you treat our events as a family hike or as an extreme endurance test is up to you. 

This is your adventure!

The 2025 season kicks off in January! We’re bringing 4 GPS events and 2 in-person events that are co-sponsored with terraloco this year around Northern California. Important Note: Due to changes implemented by MapRun, all Nav-X events will now require that you use MapRun Version 7. See the MapRun instructions page for details on how to get the latest version. 

For discounted event prices and access to previous year’s GPS events, sign up for 2025 Nav-X membership here: https://eventreg.orienteeringusa.org/eventregister/register/start/2025-club-mem

The Nav-X Series is a year-long competition in which participants can accumulate points. Every team is automatically included in the competition and is eligible to win.
