About us

The International Rogaining Federation is the world governing body for the sport. The Federation comprises 10 member countries and a number of observer countries. The International Rogaining Federation strives to provide the opportunity for rogaining in as many parts of the world as practicable. This is done by:

• Supporting rogaining where it already happens
• Expand rogaining to new regions and countries
• Supporting increased participation at both elite and recreational levels
• Raising the event and organisational quality of all rogaines
• Developing and growing sustainable national rogaining peak bodies
• Ensuring regular high-quality, well organised and technically challenging World Rogaining Championships

The most important achievement of the IRF has been the worldwide acceptance of a common ethos and uniform standards for the sport. The IRF also maintains communication between rogaining groups, coordinates the holding of regular World Rogaining Championships
