HandiCamp 2014
SINGING ROCK in cooperation with Teiresias and other partners held the weekend event designed especially (but not only) for climbers and mountaineers with disabilities, HandiCamp VIII.
This year´s meeting with disabled climbers took place in Jeseníky Mountains at Čertovy kameny near Jeseník town. (Jeseníky Mountains are situated in the northernmost part of. Moravia, Czech Republic, by Poland border.)
Even that the weather wasn´t the best one, everybody enjoyed climbing, rappelling and also caveing. Thanks for coming and see you next year.
