For those Challengers living in the Netherlands and wanting to go on a long walk wth a bit of (cumulative) altitude gain thrown in: on 18 and 19 February you can do just that: "voorjaarswandeling De Zilte Zoen (salty kiss)".

The Sportwandelschool (Walkingsport School ?) organise a weekend of walking in the dunes near Bergen aan Zee. You can walk a distance of between 10 and 30 km on Saturday and on Sunday. The dunes may not be high, but a lot of small dunes could eventually make a Munro :-). And two of such days in a row... nice!

Bergen aan Zee is on our North Sea Coast, quite near Alkmaar and within easy reach of for example expats living in Amsterdam. By the way: Bergen means Mountains, if you're doubting my description of the dunes :-).

Enjoy!
