About the trip
This is an off-road train & trail ride trip of medium difficulty, but the program can be
adapted to more advanced groups. The idea for this event was to combine technique
training and guided trail rides. The off-road training led by 11 time Dakar Rally
participant Simon Marčič will include more advanced riding elements specified below.
The trail rides will be guided by Simon through diverse terrain, so the participants can
apply new skills in practice, while enjoying breathtaking views of beautiful Istria.
