Disciplines

 

Expedición Guarani is an adventure race in which are combined several disciplines. Mountain biking, trekking, kayaking and orienteering will be

the principals and the teams will have to demonstrate their skills in all of them.

 

 

 

Orienteering

The orientation can be considered the main discipline of the race, since in all sections teams will advance with the help of a single map and compass. Have at least a good navigator on the team may be the key in getting a good final result.

 

In the race you will use topographic updated maps, in scale 1: 50,000, although in some others sections or parts of the race other maps and / or scales may also be used.

 

 

 

Trekking

The trekking sections will be the most challenging parts of the race. Teams will have to walk in paths, crossing or going through rivers, climbing waterfalls and even making its own way through the middle of the Atlantic Forest.

 

 

 

Mountain Bike

Runners will find themselves with long runs of mountain biking. Primarily, it will be on sand roads, and the elevation won’t be high, so you can get a good rhythm in these sections. Teams must take some spare material and must be able to use it appropriately in case of failure.

 

 

 

Kayak

There will be several sections of kayak, all of them in rivers.

 

 

 

Ropes

Throughout the race there will be different activities with ropes, as descending points (abseiling), and ascending (jumaring), zip lines and rope bridges.
