China

Orienteering has a special relationship with China—the compass was invented in the Middle Kingdom thousands of years ago, and the compass sport of orienteering now has a huge following in the country. 

One of the ancient civilisations of the world, China has risen to the world stage with its stellar economic development and rising global influence. Orienteering in China is now practised both in a military and civilian capacity, with regular and frequent activities throughout the country and worldwide.

As one of the largest countries of the world, China has a variety of terrains for you to explore through orienteering, from the southern tropics to the northern steppes, from the eastern seas to the western plateau. Combine your orienteering pursuits with a cultural trip to make your visit a transformative experience in Asia.
