Elevation: 30mLeague: Not in the LeagueStart: 08:30RDV: 08:30Min Age: 6

Younger kids should be accompanied by an adult as they often do not pay attention to the marked routes and can easy lose the way, and do not pace themselves easily and need an adult to reign them in.

A run in the Wetlands Promenade, winding through marvellous trees in the Petrin forest. Flat and manageable for kids or a nice walk for parents and grandparents! A couple of tiny descents into a stream, and up the other side.

A great way to encourage youngsters to enjoy sport in nature.

Petrin Visitors Centre, 1.5 km along the main 4x4 track, then into the wetlands promenade with its natural stunted uplands forest and through the wetland back to Petrin.

Carry some water - otherwise there is a clear stream after 8 km which is drinkable, except when flooding ! 

An easy trail, with only two technical descents and short ascents - otherwise mostly on flat non-technical 4/4 tracks. A great way to start the trail year.

A fast relatively flat trail, with two technical sections and descents followed by climbs, round a picturesque lake
