About this event
The Drop takes navigation challenges to an unusual extreme. Participants, solo or in teams, are blindfolded, driven to an unknown location in the Newcastle countryside, then left to find their way back on foot. There's no GPS, no compass, no checkpoints — just instinct and determination. Three distances are available: 6, 10, or 15 miles, though even the shortest requires solid navigation skills and mental resilience. This winter edition adds an extra challenge with shorter daylight and unpredictable weather. It's less about speed and more about problem-solving under pressure, making it an intriguing test for experienced navigators looking for something genuinely different.
