The children under the care of the ‘Grupa Kęty for the Children of the Podbeskidzie Region’ Foundation have covered another mountain trail within the ‘Mountains not Keyboard’ project.
This time it was The LOOP – an ambitious route covering large sections of the existing mountain trails in the Beskid Śląski, Beskid Żywiecki and Beskid Mały.
Short summary:
Roughly 225 km
Over 11,000 metres of total ascent
11 days on mountain trails (2025/2026 season)
114 participants
Congratulations to all participants!!! On Friday, 7 August, a wrap-up event was held at Gospoda Dębowiec 520, where certificates, booklets and badges were presented. We are very proud of our youths! There was also time to socialise around the campfire and discuss plans for the next mountain season. This time, we’ve set ourselves an ambitious goal – over 660 km across three trails:
Szlak Orlich Gniazd trail of 163.9 km
Tarnów – Wielki Rogacz trail of 184 km
The main trail of the Beskid Wyspowy of 320-360 km
It all kicks off on 5 September! Our heartfelt thanks to PTT Bielsko-Biała, who are running the project on a voluntary basis.
