Orienteering is a family of sports that requires navigational skills using a map and compass to navigate from point to point in diverse and usually unfamiliar terrain, and normally moving at speed. Participants are given a topographical map, usually a specially prepared orienteering map, which they use to find control points.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Orienteering )〕 Originally a training exercise in land navigation for military officers, orienteering has developed many variations. Among these, the oldest and the most popular is foot orienteering. For the purposes of this article, foot orienteering serves as a point of departure for discussion of all other variations, but basically any sport that involves racing against a clock and requires navigation using a map is a type of orienteering. Orienteering is included in the programs of world sporting events including the World Games〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Orienteering )〕 (see Orienteering at the World Games) and World Police and Fire Games.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sports )〕 ==Orienteering sports== Orienteering sports combine significant navigation with a specific method of travel. Because the method of travel determines the needed equipment and tactics, each sport requires specific rules for competition and guidelines for orienteering event logistics and course design. * Canoe orienteering * Car orienteering * Foot orienteering * Mountain bike orienteering * Mountain marathoning * Mounted orienteering * Radio orienteering (variants Fox Oring and Radio Orienteering in a Compact Area (ROCA) ) * Rogaining * Ski-orienteering * SportLabyrinth – micro orienteering * Trail orienteering Adventure racing is a combination of two or more disciplines, and usually includes orienteering as part of the race. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Orienteering」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
