About event
The premiere of the lecture held in the Great Hall of the Municipal Library in Prague. Part of the world that most people know from Instagram or travel agency catalogs. But what if you go there with a backpack on your back and point it on foot on GR 131 straight across all seven main islands? One route, two partners, 650 kilometers, 28,000 meters of climb and 36 days of freedom. The arid desert, where the wind blows the sand into your eyes, turns into a foggy laurel forest in a few days, where you drown in your own sweat and slide into mud. The scent pine forests in steep slopes alternate with a pungent smell of sulfur at the top of Spain's highest mountain Pico del Teide (3,715 m above sea level). One day you go in the heat through a vertical lava field, sometimes you walk through blooming meadows full of millions of colors.
Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Tenerife, El Hierro, La Gomera and La Palma, each island is different, different landscape, different color, different fragrance, different rhythm. Come to listen to an engaging story about the path that connects seven different worlds with one step. He has walked over 16,000 km on Czech and world trails over the past nine years. He graduated from Greater Patagonian Trail (3,900 km), triple transition of the Pyrenees (3x 800+ km), the transition of the Alpine arch (2,050 km), Via Dinarica Trail from Slovenia to North Macedonia (1,620 km) and many other shorter treks. The peculiarity is that he works and lives permanently on his way in his motor home, which says Felix. He lectures on the long -distance crossings of mountains and about life on the way. Home they don't tell friends other than Fiki. Fiki is a great lover of ferrata climbing, long -distance treks and nature in general. He especially loves walking in alpine terrain and overcoming demanding and exposed ridges and peaks with a large portion of kilometers on top. For example, HRP Ultimate Crown (866 km), GR 11 (880 km), GR 131 (666 km), GR 20 (120 km), GR 54 (190 km), Tour Du Mont Blanc (165 km) and many others have passed with friends alone or with friends (866 km), GR 11 (880 km), GR 131 (666 km). But he is not strange to him, so in 2015 he walked from Alaska to Canada after Chilkoot Trail and detached in a canoe 800 km after Yukon to Dawson City.
