We offer free B&B accomodation for mountain bikers who can come and mark trails. It is best to come in a group so it is not too boring! Normally it works best with teams of 3 or more. Every day you are out marking trails acomodation is free. For the nights when you are not marking trails we charge 10lv so 5 euros per person per night B&B just to cover the costs.
We mark the trails with spray painted white circles on trees with a big coloured dot in the middle to denote the trail. Most of the trails are pretty easy cross country trails from between 20km and 50km. If you are interested mid june to late july is best.
