Hello!
Welcome to the 2028 North American Orienteering Championships and Canadian Orienteering Festival, August 11–20, 2028, hosted by the Foothills Wanderers Orienteering Club (FWOC) in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

The 10-day Festival features the North American Orienteering Championships, the Canadian Orienteering Championships, and additional orienteering events and activities.

Rocky Mountains. Historic Streetscapes. Prairie Vistas.

Join us for a dynamic orienteering journey through the diverse landscapes of Alberta. From the alpine forests of the Rocky Mountains, to urban (& historic) landscapes, to wide-open prairie vistas, each stage offers a distinctly different orienteering experience. Along the way, discover Alberta’s history too, including a step back in time at Calgary’s Heritage Park. Ten days, three distinctive landscapes, and one great orienteering adventure.
