HIGHLANDER55 Lake Ohrid

HIGHLANDER55

27-29 August, 2022

HIGHLANDER55 Lake Ohrid is a mountaineering adventure challenge of 55 km on the mountain Jablanica which lasts 3 days. HIGHLANDER55 is a three-day weekend event for all those who do not yet feel ready for our five-day edition.

HIGHLANDER55 is ideal for those with less mountaineering experience, as now they have the opportunity to take that next step. Participants need to hike for a little more than 55 km, with 3 checkpoints + start and finish in a maximum of three days and two nights.

CHECKPOINTS

The 55 km trail has 3 mandatory checkpoints.
Participants must collect all 3 checkpoint stamps in their HIGHLANDER ID.
Checkpoint stamp collection is the sole responsibility of the participant. In the event that staff is not present at a checkpoint, participants must stamp their HIGHLANDER ID themselves.

TIME LIMITS

Participants will receive their HIGHLANDER55 Finisher Badge and Certificate regardless of their finish time.
In the event, participants reach the finish outside staff working hours, the collection of the HIGHLANDER55 Finisher Badge and Certificate will be possible at the Camping Scout (every day between 9 AM and 3 PM).

FOOD

The Organizer will provide 8 meals to be distributed at checkpoints.
Provided meals are suited to the average daily needs of an average adult: cooked food, dehydrated food, and ready meals, spreads, cheese, cold cuts, and bread.
Participants supply their own snacks and extra food (as deemed necessary).
Water will be made available during staff working hours.

Detailed information on the provided meals will be given in a timely manner.
