"I've enjoyed every second of it and I look forward to going on my walks with my family with the confidence and knowledge that I have gained with this life skill to keep us safe"
Clara, after completing her NNAS Bronze Navigation Award
The NNAS bronze course is aimed at those with little or no navigation experience, who want to be able to plan and undertake their own walks in the countryside. The course has sessions that are both indoor and outdoor based, so we cover all the basic theory of map types, scales, symbols, and grid references, then get outside and look at how to follow a route on the ground, focusing on setting the map to make walking along linear features simple.
The NNAS silver course takes you on from the skills you learned at Bronze level to get you moving over rougher moorland or mountain terrain. On this course we focus on measuring distance, on the map and on the ground, and taking and following compass bearings. We'll look at techniques such as using attack points, aiming off, and understanding contour features.
