This is one of the sports I like the most, it's known as "the sport of the nature".
You are given a map and you have to go through all points in it in the fastest way possible.
It can be played both in the city or in the forest, playing in a city is easier because you have a lot of references that you can follow, a compass while advised (and an integral part of the sport) I don't find necessary on the city.
In the forest you have a lot more to take into consideration with a lot more signs to interpret.
As you may have noticed, I really like maps so this is a great sport that mixes that with some running.
The symbol for orienteering is a square split diagonaly with white on the top left part and orange on the bottom right.
