When it’s winter in Europe and North America, the weather in Israel is ideal for orienteering. In Israel, the orienteering season runs from September through May. The Israel Sport Orienteering Association (ISOA) and its member clubs organize and run a variety of events – world ranking and national events, local meets, park sprints, and MTBO competitions.
Israel offers a unique diversity of terrain, from prairie and badlands in the south, to Mediterranean woods along the coastal plain, to classic pine forests in the north of the country. Moreover, you’ll enjoy exploring and discovering the historical and religious roots at every venue.
With events held every weekend, and rarely more than an hour or two drive from Tel Aviv, you can easily combine a tour of the Holy Land with orienteering training and competition.
