Lincoln Orienteers is a sports club located in the scenic City of Port Lincoln in South Australia. Established in 1977, the club has a rich history and has been promoting the exhilarating sport of orienteering for over four decades.
As one of the three country clubs in South Australia, Lincoln Orienteers organises regular events in the Port Lincoln area and Lower Eyre Peninsula from February to September each year. The club frequently collaborates with Saltbush, another orienteering club based in Whyalla, and the two clubs have at least two joint events each season. This partnership offers members a variety of exciting orienteering experiences, creating a strong sense of camaraderie among participants.
Lincoln Orienteers welcomes individuals, couples, and families of all ages who are passionate about physical activity and outdoor adventures. Whether you prefer navigating the town streets for Street Park orienteering or exploring the beautiful bushland during the Sunday cross-country events, there are courses designed to suit both newcomers and seasoned orienteers. Newcomers are especially encouraged to attend events listed on the club's Events Page, where they will find courses catered to their skill level and opportunities to learn and practise orienteering skills.
Beyond the thrill of the sport itself, Lincoln Orienteers emphasises the importance of social interaction and community engagement. After completing a course, participants often gather around the BBQ or campfire, sharing stories and forging connexions with fellow enthusiasts. This post-event socialising has become a regular feature of the club, providing a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere for members to unwind and connect with like-minded individuals.
The club is proud to have the support of Bendigo Bank as a sponsor, enabling Lincoln Orienteers to continue promoting and organising high-quality orienteering events throughout the year.
