BASOC was formed in June 2000 to promote the sport of orienteering in the Badenoch & Strathspey area. The club’s area was enlarged in 2003 when we merged with LOCHOC, the Lochaber club.

Between the National Orienteering Centre and BASOC, we have some of the best terrain in the UK. On offer is top-quality competition with well-planned courses and EMIT electronic punching on up-to-date overprinted maps for all our main events.

New members are always welcome at any age and at any level.

BASOC also works with the local community in various ways. There are orienteering maps of every primary and secondary school in the area, and we have a junior section which has held regular coaching sessions; some jointly with INVOC.

Our new orienteering maps include some for the villages of Kincraig, Kingussie, Nethy Bridge and Grantown-on-Spey. QUIZ ORIENTEERING using those maps is available at any time on a do-it-yourself basis using packs on sale at various points in Badenoch and Strathspey.
