JOELETTE HIKING for people with reduced mobility
About the event
You will drive joëlettes, all-terrain single-wheel chairs equipped with electric assistance for climbing hills.
You will accompany participants with disabilities on a hike.
At lunchtime, we will enjoy a local picnic before setting off again on our hike to return to our vehicles.
A day to experience and share, to discover something different.
Training and supervision will be provided by mountain guides who are specialists in joëlettes at the start of the day.
