Cork Orienteering Club organises and promotes the sport of orienteering in the Cork area, both City and County. We organise events to cater for most ages and fitness levels. We are always delighted to welcome new people to our events and we offer coaching in navigation and running skills to people of all ages and abilities.

We hosted the 2008 Irish Orienteering Championships in Bere Island. There were 3 days of orienteering on open terrain on May 3rd, 4th and 5th. Results and photos are available here.

The Inter-Firm Orienteering League is popular with people of all ages and fitness. It takes place during on the long Summer evenings in May, June and July. Most people come along to enjoy the various outdoor locations and treat it as a fun evening out in the middle of the week. Having said that, with over 200 people takeing part some weeks it's very competitive at the top. Events are held on Tuesday evening and start times are between 5:30PM and 7:00PM. Most events are located within a 30 to 60 minute drive of Cork city. Take a look at our fixtures page for further details

The 3 day Shamrock Oringen is run every 2 years on some of the best open mountain terrain in Western Europe. The 2007 event was held in The Sheep's Head and Glengarriff areas of West Cork.
