Asbury Woods Orienteering Course & GPS Course
Start at the bike rack outside the Main Center. Use a compass or a GPS to find 15 hidden 4”x4” wooden posts along the 2.3 mile Greenway Trail from the Nature Center to Brown’s Farm! (I have included the needed brochure with corresponding coordinates in the gallery)
Scouts can earn an orienteering badge!
This orienteering course was designed and installed by Steve Baker for his Eagle Scout project. Each GPS/Compass course post will has a sign. All of the signs have a letter followed by two numbers that were randomly chosen. When you find the post, enter that information in the corresponding space in the brochure.
Please try and stay on the trails as best as you can. All of the starting points are on the trail. When you are finished with the course, return to the Nature Center where a staff person can check to see if you successfully completed the course.
Stop in at the Nature Center and grab the course directions and waypoint log. The information can also be downloaded from the supplied link before hand. The course is open to the public and is FREE of charge. The course is open every single day dawn to dusk.
