Residents can now sign up for the second annual Collingwood Waterfront Map Adventure, an urban orienteering challenge taking place in Collingwood, Ontario, on Sunday, April 26, 2026. This family-friendly event invites people of all ages to explore the local shoreline while navigating to various checkpoints.

The event is organized by Don’t Get Lost Adventure Running, a group that specializes in outdoor navigation challenges. Participants will receive a custom-designed map to help them find markers along the local shoreline.

Those taking part will have 75 minutes to find as many locations as possible. According to the event organizers, the course begins with a set of mandatory checkpoints that everyone must visit in sequence, followed by optional, more difficult checkpoints for those who want an extra challenge.

The route will lead participants through the Collingwood Waterfront Trail system. This includes scenic areas like Harbourview Park and the historic grain terminals.

The activity is designed for all skill levels and focuses on promoting physical activity and local appreciation. Registration is currently open for families and individuals who want to take part in the spring event.
