Orienteering Course
There is a large permanent orienteering course which has recently been updated and relocated, at High Lodge Forest Centre. Different routes, of varying distances can be completed.
This is an excellent way to explore the deeper depths of Thetford Forest Park.
Orienteering maps at £1.50 are available from High Lodge Forest Centre. A small toll is levied at the entrance. Please telephone 01842 816028 to check availability and to book, if you are part of a group.
How to get there:
Orienteering Course can be started from High Lodge Forest Centre in Thetford Forest Park. Brandon is the nearest town or village.
The forest drive and entrance is located on the B1107 Thetford to Brandon Road, approximately 4 miles from Thetford and half a mile from Brandon. Follow the Forest Road for about 1½ miles and you will enter the car parking area. A forest access charge applies. (Post code IP27 0AF)
