Embargoed Areas: Arncliffe/Kilnsey & Danefield
The British Orienteering Championships 2027 will be held at Kilnsey and Arncliffe (Individual), and Danefield (Relays) on 17th and 18th April 2027. These areas are now embargoed for orienteers wishing to compete.
Access is allowed to compete in Parkrun, for example, but general exploration of these areas would breach the embargo. Orienteers who breach the embargo must declare themselves non-competitive if they subsequently take part in the above Championship events.
