    An Overview of the Sport of Orienteering
    From Amanda Briney
    See More About:
    Digital Vision/Getty Images zSB(3,3) Orienteering is a sport using navigation with maps and compasses to find various points in unfamiliar and often difficult-to-follow terrain. Participants, called orienteers, begin by getting a prepared orienteering topographic map that features specific details of the area so they can find control points. Control points are checkpoints used so orienteers can ensure that they are on the right path to completing their course.
    Orienteering History
    Orienteering first gained popularity as a military exercise in 19th century Sweden and orienteering as a term was introduced there in 1886. Then the term meant the crossing of unknown land with just a map and compass. In 1897, the first non-military public orienteering competition took place in Norway. This competition was extremely popular there and was followed shortly thereafter by another public orienteering competition in Sweden in 1901. By the 1930s, orienteering was becoming popular in Europe as inexpensive and reliable compasses became available. After World War II, orienteering grew popular worldwide and in 1959, an international conference on orienteering was held in Sweden to discuss the formation of an orienteering committee. As a result, in 1961 the
