The permanent course is a rogaine rather than a Classic O, although the original controls are there for the latter.

Nineteen controls can be done in any order as it's a rogaine. The start triangle is the "kiosk" near the main lake.
The map has been put together by Rob Newbrook from Taranaki Orienteering. The map is a PDF document on the Club website, and the controls are a MS Word document downloadable from the same.
Previously the Egmont Orienteering Club (Same - just renamed) placed control posts throughout the park. They are still in place.
Difficulty level: Easy, follows well formed tracks for the most part
 Course length: 3 km
 Course Climb: 30m
 Maintained by: Taranaki Orienteering Club
