Your hosts
Oceania Orienteering Championships 2025 are hosted in Aotearoa New Zealand by the orienteering clubs of the southern North Island. From North to South, we are Orienteering Taranaki, Hawke’s Bay Orienteering Club, Red Kiwi Orienteers, Orienteering Hutt Valley, and of course the organisers at Orienteering Wellington.
We’d like to thank the many organisations and individuals who’ve made Oceania 2025 possible, including landowners, sponsors and our inspiring ambassadors on both sides of the Tasman.
And if you have any questions please don’t hestitate to get in touch.
Governing bodies
Oceania 2025 is supported and sanctioned by Orienteering New Zealand (ONZ) and the International Orienteering Federation (IOF). We’re indebted to both organisations for their help in ensuring the Oceania Orienteering Championships continue to be world class events.
The terrain
Oceania 2025 features forest events, to give elite orienteers a chance to train and compete on suitable terrain as part of their preparation for WOC in the forests of Finland, later in the year.
But you definitely don’t need to be an elite athlete to enjoy your time in the forest – orienteering is for everyone, and Oceania 2025 has courses suitable for all fitness levels and navigation abilities.
