CHRISTMAS PARTY
We are very excited to present an AAA party. In addition to great hiking and wonderful food, we will have a special Christmas party on Saturday Night. Choose Anything beginning with A for your fancy dress!

As always, fancy dress is mandatory (and not your hiking gear 😉).
You can choose a costume that identifies as a character - suggestions are in the comments.
We leave it up to your imagination and creativity 😉. Prizes for the best outfits will be awarded as we dance the night away to cool international tunes!

This trip is a great chance to catch up with the hiking friends you have met during this and previous years.
