Is it possible to do the Petite Aventure with an electric bike?

Yes, during the events, electrical connections will be available for participants.

Is it possible to have a gluten-free menu for people with gluten intolerance?

A gluten-free menu is available for meals. However, due to the high volume involved in the logistics of serving meals at La Petite Aventure, we cannot guarantee 100% freedom from food cross-contamination.

The gluten-free menu is therefore available for participants with a gluten intolerance, but is not recommended for celiac participants.

No, the packages are offered according to the formulas and duration as presented on our website and these are not modifiable.

Is it possible to have access to Petite Aventure's meal service without paying for lodging?
