The 5th Réunion d’Aventures
Press Release / 19.12.2008
According to their level, the teams may be classified into three different categories :
The types of sport on the short list for this 5th competition are : canyoning, walking-orienteering, mountain bike, ride and run, sea kayak, etc.
Details will be given at the end of December after the definitive reconnaissance. What is already certain is that the contestants will be going through the remotest parts of this magical island which remain mysterious because of the extremely rugged features that make some of them impenetrable.
Registration is now open. The registration fee is unchanged at €600 excl. VAT. The number of teams will be limited to 25 or 30 according to the possibilities that the chosen course will offer. This limit is required because of the equipment necessary for the race and the narrowness of certain crossing points. Réunion d’Aventures cannot be a mass competition.
From January on, the organisation will offer the teams a package covering the flight from France, the support vehicle, the transfers and the accommodation. As always with GFC, the budget will be very reasonable thanks to the participation of the partners of the event, led by "Ile de la Réunion Tourisme", the tourism development board of Réunion.
As in previous editions, Réunion d’Aventures will receive wide media coverage with daily batches of images sent by satellite to French, European and international televisions and websites, depending on the nationality of the teams taking part. The best cameramen and photographers and journalists capable of intense physical input will be on the ground for this great adventure through the heart of Réunion.
