A Beginner's Guide to Natural Navigation
This one day course provides a general introduction to natural navigation. It is ideal for those who enjoy the outdoors, including: walkers, sailors, pilots, explorers, travellers, map-lovers, expedition members, adventurers and those curious about the world around us.
At the end of the course participants will have a good understanding of the principles behind natural navigation and should be able to orientate themselves at a basic level on land, sea or in the air, by day or night. The course takes place in a classroom as this allows us to cover the world by day or night. Participants are guaranteed a unique insight into the subject with the help of unusual models and Tristan’s unique collection of natural navigation photographs and video. No previous experience is necessary.
This course has been honed over 8 years to be as thorough an introduction to the subject possible in one day.
