A friendly, event in the South of Scotland Orienteering League in East Lothian

Balgone is a relatively new area for orienteering in East Lothian and was professionally mapped for us in 2022. Balgone is a wooded area with two lochs and plenty of spectacular landscape features.

We are very grateful to James Grant-Suttie and the Balgone estate for permission to map and use this beautiful area for orienteering.

Orienteers of all abilities are welcome to join us on the day when we will have a range of courses to suit everyone.
More information can be found on the ELO website.
