London Park Race 2026

CHIG is proud to be part of the 2026 London Park Race programme - details here.

There are 10 events taking place on Tueday evenings between 19 May and 21 July, all based near a railway or tube station - making them very accessible.

Each event is an orienteering race - instead of running along a pre-marked route, you navigate from control to control. Competitors start at one-minute intervals and the quickest person back, having visited all the controls in the correct order, wins.
At each control-point, which is marked by a distinctive flag, you "punch" the SI-card you will have been given, into the electronic timer. This proves you've been there and also means you get a printout of your split times at the end.

CHIG’s event is at Wanstead Flats on 16 June.
