Map Reading & Navigation Skills Training Courses in The Lake District.

Bookings are getting off to a good start for our 2014 Map Reading & Navigation Skills Training Courses in The Lake District.

Our first weekend course is running on March  29th & 30th and we already have nine confirmed persons attending.

Probably one of the main reasons for this is the fantastic value that these courses represent. For only £80 per person you get two days of tuition and maps are also provided. All you need to do is to turn up with a compass (the Silva Type 4 expedition is what we recommend), everything you would need for two days walking out in the mountains - and plenty of enthusiasm to learn new skills!

Our Map Reading & Navigation Skills Training Courses are run in one of the Lake Districts most peaceful, pleasant and yet most accessible places.

Our meeting point is for these courses outside of Wilfs Cafe in Staveley which is very close to the A591 - one of the main roads into the southern part of The Lake District and very close to Kendal, Windermere and Ambleside. Accommodation options are considerable locally and range from reasonably priced hotels & guest houses through to nearby campsites.

Each day, we start at 9am and finish back at Staveley by 5pm giving you plenty of time to relax and enjoy the hospitality that the area has to offer.
