​

The length of the course depends on the group of participants in the session or on their motor skills. It can be looped or back and forth for about 4 km to be covered in 3 or 4 hours . 

​

Full day sessions can be even longer up to six to seven kilometers interspersed with longer breaks.

 

The difficult routes of point 4 can be even longer depending on the territory and the group.

​

Sessions lasting several consecutive days or at night are equally characterized by slow rhythms and situations of comfort and safety.
