Furthermore, Directive 2018/851/EC introduced the waste hierarchy that involved a new strategy with the prevention in waste production and the minimization of landfill disposal.

  • Exploring Slovenia's Julian Alps and Beyond
    Exploring Slovenia’s Julian Alps and Beyond Two Treks and Balkan Culture in an Undiscovered Corner of the Alps August 30, 2021 – September 13, 2021 – Trip #2167 Triglav National Park Overview Join us for a wonderful fifteen-day trip to the undiscovered hiking and scenic paradise of Slovenia. We will pass medieval castles, churches, and traditional mountain villages as we walk through valleys, across mountain pastures, and traverse mountain ridges with towering peaks all around us. This trip combines two rugged short treks (one carrying all our gear and staying in mountain huts, and the other staying in hotels with luggage transport), an exciting ascent to Slovenia’s highest peak, and visits to the most scenic and interesting regions of this small, but incredibly beautiful country. A few words about Slovenia itself: it is a small country located in southern central Europe at the intersection of major trade routes and of the Slavic, Germanic, and Romance languages and cultures. Historically part of many empires including Rome, Austro-Hungarian, Venice, and France, it is currently a prosperous, democratic European country of two million persons. Over 50% of its landmass remains forested. It is exceptionally bio-diverse for its size particularly as pertains to endemic cave species. Slovenia’s Place in Europe Trip Difficulty This trip is rated strenuous #6. Trip Rating System. Excluding breaks we will hike from five to ​ ​ seven hours per day, between 6 and 14 miles, with an average elevation gain of about 2500 feet. The terrain is rugged and steep in places, and requires agility. There will be sections on narrow trails with exposure (steep drop-offs).

  • The Ultimate Rocky Road Trip
    3/23/2021 The ultimate Rocky road trip The ultimate Rocky road trip Photos: Alamy, Parks Canada/Ryan Bray You could drive the Icefields Parkway in three hours. But you won’t. Whether you’re a walker, photographer or expert picnicker, this is the longest three-hour trip in the world. By Leslie Woit, Saturday 27 February, 2016 “There are two ways to see the Icefields Parkway (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/northamerica/canada/7366 34/A-seriously-good-spin.html). The hard way,” explained Banff mountain guide Chic Scott. “And the easy way.” In 1967, Chic was among a small team who completed the first high-level ski traverse from Jasper to Lake Louise. It took 21 days to negotiate that particular uncharted strip of Alberta’s Rocky Mountains (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/north- america/galleries/Rocky-Mountains-highlights-17-incredible-photographs- of-the-Rockies/), 300km over what he described as “a logical line along the s.telegraph.co.uk/graphics/projects/canada-travel-icefield-parkway/index.html 1/14 3/23/2021 The ultimate Rocky road trip Continental Divide”. They climbed peaks, hopscotched crevasse-riddled glaciers, crossed massive avalanche paths, all while passing through some of the most resplendent, rugged mountain scenery on Earth. The Canadian Rockies, Banff National Park. Banff Lake Louise Tourism/Paul Zizka And then there’s the easy way Parallel to Chic’s backcountry route, the Icefields Parkway cuts a swath through western Alberta from Jasper to Lake Louise, a civilised 230km highway paved smooth as a baby’s bottom.
