isoGaine 2021

 A series of free rogaines in Melbourne's Eastern suburbs.

Rogaining is a great team sport - ideal for scouts and families that want to explore an area on foot or bike. This site provides a number of metrogaines that can be done alone or in small groups. Checkpoints are distinct features in the landscape - features that you will spot easily as you approach them. 

Scoring is done electronically - using a SmartPhone App called MapRun. The MapRun pages here provide an overview of  MapRun, how to install it, how to use it and how to see your results and that of others.

But first - please scroll down and read the safety instructions below.
