BEGINNERS COURSE DATES
Saturday 28th & Sunday 29th November 2026
The Beginners course is a practical hands-on course. It is aimed at people with no navigation experience whether you are new to the outdoors or have been relying on others, guidebooks or easy well-defined routes.
This navigation course is also the starting point for many Duke of Edinburgh students, scouts and guides and cadet groups who are looking to develop their outdoor map reading skills.
This popular 2 day course will be based around Holmfirth, West Yorkshire located in the Peak District, a village made famous by the TV series “Last of the Summer Wine”.
Day 1 will start with an outdoor classroom input, and then out onto the Peak District footpaths to practise some map reading and compass work.
Day 2 will be out on the trails all day, putting into practise everything we’ve learnt over the previous day.
The 2 days will be very relaxed and enjoyable. All candidates will receive a Boot Routes Certificate.
You will require decent walking boots, waterproofs, rucksack with enough food and water for each day.
This is our most popular course, its an introduction to the outdoors, very relaxed and we can guarantee that you will enjoy it.
