Riverwalk 2017: The longest yet!
Where? Inn River (over 500 km!) – from Maloja (Switzerland) to Passau (Germany)
When? 14 July – 06 August 2017 (24 days!)
What? 20 young adults (15-30 years old) from Austria, Switzerland and Germany discovered the Inn by hiking, cycling and rafting more than 500 km from the source of the river to the confluence with the Danube. The goal of Riverwalk 2017 was to discover, protect and raise awareness of the importance of large, “living rivers” such as the Inn and explore local initiatives for renaturation and eco-friendly uses.
