peer agreement (net): +1educational nature trek Explanation: From the examples I found, it seems that 'raid' is the English word 'ride' that has become a loan word in Spanish. It either means a rally/race or a safari type expedition (usually to take photographs and explore the local natural environment. From the way it is used in this and similar contexts, it could be translated back as: - 'tour' - 'expedition' - 'hike' - trek So, maybe something like 'nature trek'/'educational trail'/nature walk/trail Example sentence(s):
