Silver Bike Packing Expedition Practice & Qualifier £200 each or both for £350 minimum of 10
Silver requires the participants’ skills level to increase along with their confidence and ability to be self reliant, as they will be moving through more challenging terrain. More advanced navigational techniques and expedition skills will be learnt, which will increase their confidence and allow them to complete their chosen route stress free and with a smile.
Programmes will include plenty of time to get to know your team mates and mentoring from your instructor will continue throughout so that you always feel supported.
The areas around Badaguish are perfect for Silver expeditions and are we are easily reached by both public transport and the motorway networks. If you require transport then that can be arranged.
Please see an example Practice and expedition schedule below
