Fill out the health formThis introductory long-distance hiking experience will take place in the heart of the Ouareau Forest Regional Park. Guided and supervised by our team, you’ll have the chance to hike the park’s trails and set up your tent at the end of the day to enjoy an evening of camping. Over the course of the program, you’ll participate in relevant workshops to prepare you for a long-distance hike on your own.
This introductory course has an educational objective: to teach participants how to properly plan and manage a long hike, including camp management, food, safety, itinerary, etc. This weekend focused on learning and fun is perfect for learning in a relaxed atmosphere.
Day 1 - The morning will be spent organizing and discussing our equipment, dividing up food, and discussing our itinerary. Bring more rather than less; we'll have time to review the equipment on site!
You will be paired with another participant for meals (to share the weight and portions).
For sleeping arrangements, you will be paired with another participant on site if you do not already have a partner.
We should leave the site a little before lunchtime to head out on the trails. We will then settle in for the night.
Day 2 - The hike continues - we will cover distances of approximately 6 to 12 km (at most)
Day 3 - Return to the starting point.
