Témiscamingue is a resource region characterized by its vast expanses of forest, farmlands, numerous lakes and rivers, diverse fauna, and the quality of its landscapes. The forestry industry, agriculture, vacation resorts, and nature-based recreational tourism activities have flourished thanks to the region’s rich natural resources. The territory is a true paradise for outdoor enthusiasts and lovers of wide-open spaces!
Participants will be in teams of two and will have to cover 150 km over three days by canoe, bike, trekking, adventure swimming and rope activity, all the while finding their bearings with map and compass!
The Raid international Témiscamingue will begin on Friday afternoon with a Youth Raid. The 57 young teams will be accompanied by the adults to start the race.
The race will be supplemented by a variety of events, beginning with a grand opening ceremony on Thursday evening and ending with a festive banquet on Sunday. Four days of programming for an exceptional Témiscamingue experience. Set in the heart of Anishnabe territory, this event will also showcase aboriginal culture through close collaboration with local First Nations communities.
The raid international Témiscamingue is 160 km of wilderness trails including swimming, mountain biking, running, canoeing and, of course, other surprise activities on the ropes. Navigation is by map and compass only!
Race or trek across a mix of on-trail and off-trail sections using a compass to guide you!
Competency with a map and compass is essential for a successful Raid Témiscamingue!
Mountain biking offers access to the best panoramic views of the region, as long as you’re ready and willing to carry the bike on your shoulders!
Canoeing is a traditional and typically Canadian activity that is an absolute must for Endurance Aventure raids.
Témiscamingue is home to navigable lakes and rivers that seem to stretch forever…
That’s right, at Endurance Aventure, we like to get wet! Swimming, regardless of the water temperature, will be a key part of the Raid Témiscamingue!
Participants will be amazed by the spectacular views—sometimes high, sometimes wide—as they tackle the rope challenges!
The Raid jeunesse gives young people from Temiscamingue a unique sporting experience in their region. The 57 teams, made up of two young people aged 13 and 17, will have to show perseverance, and will undoubtedly surpass their limits! The event will be promoted in schools through a tour of classrooms to encourage involvement as an athlete or volunteer, and to promote healthy lifestyle habits. In addition to being encouraged and prepared to take part in the race, young people will be involved in all aspects of Raid programming as athletes, volunteers or supporters . Volunteers can be involved in TV production, animation, photography and race logistics.
