The discipline has been developed to offer everyone, including people with limited mobility, a chance to participate in a meaningful orienteering competition.
Lisaks on olemas veel täpsusorienteerumine, mille eesmärk on pakkuda võistlus- ja harrastusmomenti füüsilistest võimetest lahutatuna ehk täpselt samal rajal saavad osaleda ja tulemusi võrrelda nii noor kui vana, mees kui naine, nii omal jõul kui abivahendiga liikuv inimene.
The IOF (International Orienteering Federation) governs four orienteering disciplines: foot orienteering, mountain bike orienteering, ski orienteering, and trail orienteering.
Trail Orienteering (TrailO) involves map and terrain interpretation. Competitors are permitted to use mobility aids to travel through the terrain. Any recognised mobility aids, apart from a combustion engine, are permitted. Recognised physical assistance is also permitted. The winner is the person who scores the greatest number of points on the set course.
