Your plane just crashed in the middle of nowhere. No GPS. No help in sight. Just your team — your goal is to survive this ordeal.
Building a shelter. Start a fire. Care for the injured. Find water and food. Report your presence. Five missions. One team. A timer that doesn't stop.
The Forest Crash Challenge Immerse your participants in an intense survival simulation where each decision has a direct impact on the final result. Roles emerge naturally: who takes control? Who manages the resources? Who cares, who builds, who seeks help?
At the end, the instructors inspect each team's camps. Who survived? Who knew how to adapt, coordinate and pressure? The forest does not lie.

The Crash Challenge is a high-intensity experience designed to reveal the true dynamics of a team under pressure. By placing participants in a simulated crisis situation, it tests natural leadership, rapid decision-making, resource management, and the ability to stay united in the face of adversity. It is a powerful choice for organizations that want to strengthen collective resilience, identify leadership profiles and forge authentic relationships through an experience that is not forgotten.
Yes, this is one of our most frequent use cases. The synchronized format levels the playing field: a new employee has the exact same experience as a colleague who has been there for 10 years, which quickly fosters connections and a sense of belonging within the first few weeks.
The activity includes a competitive element between sub-groups, but within an energizing and supportive atmosphere. Competition here acts as a catalyst: it stimulates mobilization, creativity, and collective engagement, further boosting team cohesion.
This activity involves movement elements that may be challenging for some participants. We invite you to discuss this with our team during planning: our facilitators take the time to understand your group's composition and can suggest adaptations to ensure everyone fully contributes to the collective experience. Our goal is for the activity to be engaging for all, regardless of individual physical condition.
We have all the necessary equipment for the activity itself. However, if we need visual support, you will need to be able to provide it. Additionally, we have a sound system, but we prefer to use the one on-site when possible.
