Samaya x Les Petits Baroudeurs
RECONNECTING WITH NATURE THROUGH FAMILY BIVOUACKING
For its third edition, the Les Petits Baroudeurs festival was held from July 8th to 10th, 2023, in the heart of the Massif des Bauges Regional Nature Park. Reconnecting with oneself and with nature are the watchwords of this event, where all participants bivouac. Maureen Raway, Technical Representative, represented Samaya on this occasion and shares her experience with us.
What is the Les Petits Baroudeurs festival all about?
Maureen Raway: The goal of the Les Petits Baroudeurs festival is to provide a family-oriented immersive experience, to reconnect with nature. It takes place several times a year, once at the seaside and once in the mountains. This time, the festival took place at the foot of the Bauges mountains. We were able to set up a base camp in the heart of nature, which is ideal for this reconnection.
Why did Samaya partner with this event?
MR: For several reasons. First of all, the event promotes reconnecting with nature, a value that has been in Samaya's DNA since its inception. It was therefore natural for us to be able to offer our bivouac equipment for this festival. Furthermore, we have just entered the 3-season category with our Samaya INSPIRE2 tents, our flagship products of the year. This tent was designed to allow for contemplation and reconnection, while providing real comfort to families spending time in it. Everything was therefore in place for us to share our vision of bivouacking with Les Petits Baroudeurs.
What were the reactions and impressions after the nights spent in the tents?
MR: I received more than positive feedback. Everyone was unanimous about how easy it is to set up the Samaya INSPIRE2 with its two unique poles, and the fact that the installation is very intuitive. The single-wall design was also highly appreciated for the practicality and lightness it offers. Ultimately, both adults and children loved spending time in the tent with so much space and comfort, allowing for beautiful shared moments.
