A lovely day out on the bike in Culbin

We enjoyed the first MTBO event of the summer today 10th May at Culbin - full results including splits can be seen here. Thanks once again to our planner and organiser Steve Smirthwaite, who set us a real challenge on each of the three courses.  It was great to see some families out enjoying the forest in the May sunshine. While I enjoyed the biking challenge, the highlight for me was seeing two ospreys fishing in the estuary near to where Steve took this photo. Delightful!

Culbin MTBO

Lady Culbin SOL a great success!

The Lady Culbin Scottish Orienteering League event held on Sunday 23rd March was a huge success - over 430 competitors enjoyed the technical challenge of a classic forest. Putting on a such a successful event is a real achievement for our club. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to three people who have been working so hard for many months prior to the event.   Jon Hollingdale, as planner set us some excellent, really challenging courses.  He also mapped the area, and then updated the map at short notice following recent forestry work. David Ritchie organised the event and printed all the maps, as well as many signs to guide us to the event and around the assembly and to the starts. David's efficient organisation contributed to a lovely atmosphere in Assembly, helped by coffee from Un Petit Café.  Our thanks go to Lynne Walker (BASOC) who was the controller for the event, supporting the planner and organiser with her wise counsel in the months, weeks and days leading up to the event. 

We could not put on an event like this without the help and support given by the Binsness Estate, and permission to hold the event from Forestry and Land Scotland. Of course it goes without saying that many Moravian club members volunteered on the day. Download team, Registration/enquiries team, Parking team, String course team, Start/Finish team, Control hanging & collecting team.  Thank you all!  Finally, well done everyone who competed on the day - results can be seen here.

Thursday Hill Training

We hold informal hill training sessions every Thursday morning between 09:30 - 10:30 in Forres.  We meet at Grant Park, run for about an hour, usually around Cluny Hill (depending on how energetic we are feeling!) and then enjoy a coffee and chat.

About Us

runner

Moravian Orienteering Club has been in existence since 1974. We are located in the North East of Scotland, where we have access to some of the best orienteering terrain in Scotland.

Our membership come from Moray, Nairn and historic Banffshire. We have a core of active members who orienteer all over the world; some of our members are in Scottish or GB Squads, others have represented Scotland or Great Britain, but the majority are recreational orienteers who love the challenge of navigating and running in Moray's fantastic countryside.

Orienteering is a sport for all the family, ages and abilities, so we aim to be inclusive in everything we do, and provide a welcoming, supportive, and safe environment for all. We encourage participation and involvement in all our events, and want to help members develop as orienteers, with a full range of regular coaching opportunities.

Child Welfare and Protection

We take very seriously the wellbeing of everyone who comes orienteering, whatever their age, but we are particularly keen to ensure that juniors (whether members or visitors) are as safe as possible when participating in club events. Anyone with concerns about child safety or wellbeing should contact the club's Child Welfare and Protection Officer, Liz Campbell, at cpo@mor.scot.  More information on Moravian's Child Welfare and Protection policies can be found at the Child Welfare and Protection page on our website.
