District Inter-Unit Night Hike (Explorers)

Think your Unit has what it takes to take on the Night Hike?
Join us for one of Danum’s most challenging events — an overnight expedition where navigation, teamwork and resilience are put to the test.
Event Overview
The District Inter-Unit Night Hike is a competitive overnight event where Explorer teams will navigate a set route in the dark, working together to reach checkpoints and complete challenges along the way.
Teams will hike through the night, testing their navigation skills, communication and endurance, before completing the event the following day.
This event is designed to challenge Explorers at a higher level, encouraging independence, problem solving and leadership throughout the expedition.
Further details, including route, timings and locations, will be confirmed as planning progresses.
