Ferrygaine
The first-ever Ferrygaine is to be held on Sunday 20 September 2026, based at Cockatoo Island, opposite the river’s entry into Sydney Harbour. There will also be an orienteering event at Cockatoo Island on Saturday 19 September. This will be an awesome weekend of navigational sport. We encourage participants to make the most of the spectacular location and stay on the Island for the weekend. This will be the seventh event in the Lane Cove Rivergaine series, which began in 2015. The course will extend north, with controls located from Hunters Hill to Woolwich, and south from Chiswick, to Drummoyne, Five Dock, Lilyfield, Balmain and Birchgrove. The island itself is part of the rogaine, providing intriguing navigational challenges with its multiple levels and complex building and tunnel systems. There are two rogaines to choose from: 6⅓ hour Socialgaine – start at 1008, finish at 1628 (teams of 2-5) 3⅓ hour Minigaine – start at 1108, finish at 1428 (teams of 2-5 or solo). The unusual durations and start/finish times are set to fit in with ferry timetables. What better way of spending a spring day than ferrying around Sydney Harbour as part of a rogaine. Also, the many ferry routes and schedules present numerous options and much head-scratching. If that’s not unique enough, this ‘socialgaine’ will also have some special features: A croquet control at Hunters Hill Croquet Club, with your points determined by how many strokes your team takes to score the hoop. Double points during a nominated hour of the event. Some controls only available for specific periods. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to participate in a rare rogaine combining land and water elements. Please email me if you'd like to form a team with compatible members

Nightgaine
Get ready for a proper Nightgaine adventure through Berowra Valley National Park, spilling out into Cherrybrook and Pennant Hills. Running entirely on established tracks in line with NPWS requirements, this course still packs plenty of bite — there’s a maze of trails out there, and if your concentration slips, the bush will punish you. This is the perfect event to launch your night navigation career. Play it safe with mostly street running and the occasional bush track, or send it and dive into some serious tricky night nav on faint, hard-to-find trails. For the sharpest navigators and fastest movers, clearing the course in 5 hours will be a real challenge. Expect: 🔥 Tricky, confidence testing navigation 🌲 Stunning bushland after dark 🧭 Endless route choice, catering for street cruisers or full bush warriors 🏛️ Cool local historical features hidden in plain sight The sun sets at 5:12 pm, so darkness will fall early and fast, headlamps on, brains engaged. This one’s all about smart decisions, steady nerves, and owning the night. Entry fees and inclusions Entry fees for the event are not yet finalised. Your entry includes: Up to 5 hours of adventure at Cherrybrook. Map and electronic timing (1 per person). Please email me to form a group of compatible rogainers
