Welcome!

Rogaining Tasmania is proud to host the 2011 Australian Rogaining Championships. They will be held in the northern midlands of Tasmania with the Hash House being approximately one hour from Launceston and two hours from Hobart. Detailed directions to the event will be emailed out to all competitors.

The terrain will be a mixture of open plains (farmland) and steeper lightly wooded hills. Many gullies have thicker vegetation lowering visibility. For more information including photos please see General Information

 

The Organising Team

The event director is Christine Brown. The setting and vetting team consists of John Brock, Karen Pedley, Darryl Smith and Nigel Davies. The map is being prepared by renowned cartographer, Mike Morffew.
