ROUGH OUTLINE
Having identified the conditions of the area during the activity of the previous day, and if they are appropriate, we will drive along the beautiful forest route of Mountainous Corinth which lead from Doxas Lake to Dassiou Lake. If the conditions do not allow us to take this route, the activity will take place in the area around Feneos River. Driving through relatively easy dirt roads we will cross a forest of fir trees and we will have the chance to admire the panoramic view of the impressive Doxas Lake, which stands at the roots of Dourdouvana Mountain.
YOU MUST KNOW
-
This activity applies to owners of any kind of a 4X4 vehicle, experienced or not and aims to teach you the basics of off-road driving, while driving along simple forest roads, through beautiful landscapes.
-
Due to its low level of difficulty, this activity is ideal for the whole family.
-
The level of difficulty will be gradually ascending but never excess the standards of the basic level, so you can get a general idea about safe off-road driving and its secrets.
-
The process of the activity depends on the weather conditions and its effects. Therefore, for safety reasons, it is possible that it will not end by the book or that we choose new routes during the activity.
-
The main purpose of this activity is your training in off-road driving. Therefore, the criteria that Off-Road Adventures used in order to choose the routes are the following, in order: a) safety, b) conditions that the vehicles and the crews will have to face, c) driving pleasure, d) beauty of the landscapes.
-
The areas that we choose in order to carry out our single day activities are often the same, with just a few alternations. This is because, we have to combine the above-mentioned criteria with the distance and the time that we need to get to a certain area. This combination does not allow us to move further than a specific area.
-
The activity will last for about 5-6 hours.
-
For your comfortable stay in the country during the activity, the crew of your vehicle should have taken care about its appropriate and comfortable personal equipment and clothing.
-
Off-Road Adventures’ attendants and instructors have no personal differences with any participant. Their acts aim only to your safety and right training.
-
In order to assure the normal and safe completion of the activity, it is necessary that the participants take under serious consideration the following terms of participation: 1. The crews must be well organized. 2. Vehicles must have the necessary equipment (as described below), but most of all they have to observe the safety rules that Off Road Adventures has set down. 3. The crews are obliged to help during the recovery of the vehicles regardless of the weather conditions or their tiredness. 4. There is a possibility to use the equipment of a vehicle during the recovery of another. 5. All crews must have a detailed map (at least 1/100.000) of the area that the activity will take place.
