Challenge duration
Description
Summer is a wonderful time for travel and exploration. This challenge is especially for those who love to tell stories and are not afraid to share their experiences and tips with others. The goal of the challenge is to write a STORY about your summer adventure.
Your story can be about a hike, a mountain crossing, a foreign vacation, completing a Horobranic challenge, etc. Something that can be inspirational and "kick-ass" for others who are about to do something similar. If you add a route or sketch out the peaks in addition to the storyun, it will be a great subject for other enthusiasts. You have time to write from June to the end of September 2024.
Here are links to some popular stories:
- crossing Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands
- crossing the Low Tatras
- crossing the Lusatian Mountains
- a trip to the Baltic Sea
