Description
For true enthusiasts, there are no half measures. The 6-hour quad trek in Lyon is our longest option: a full day of adventure to ride, explore and push your limits behind the handlebars.
The expedition sets off from south-west Lyon, a 15-minute drive from the city centre. After an introductory session on private grounds, it’s time for total immersion in the trails and terrain of the surrounding area.
Whether you’re at the controls or riding on the back, a professional instructor accompanies you all day long. Drivers must be 18 or over and hold a driving licence, and passengers can come along from the age of 10. A day to enjoy with friends, family or as a couple, for those with a taste for big outings.
Remember to bring a €4,000 security deposit cheque, requested on the day and only used in the event of damage to the equipment. The quad and protective gear are provided.
On a day like this, the meal break is part of the journey: traditional inn, local cuisine or picnic, to be chosen with us. The meal is at extra cost.
