The most beautiful and quietest rally in the world finished on Saturday, June 11th 2022 in Zadar on the location of “the most beautiful sunset in the world” as Alfred Hitchcock once so eloquently put it.
After 7 days of driving through the sun-kissed landscape of Croatia in silent electric vehicles, while demonstrating their driving skills on different occasions, the winner was pronounced.
The black cars move fast and silent along the sunsoaked coast of Croatia, reflecting the blue of the ocean. There are no loud engines, no nauseating petrol fumes. Only the sound of the ocean – and bystanders cheering the cars on.
The Nikola Tesla EV Rally Croatia 2022 is well underway.
Discover a unique race, only for electric vehicles, in the homeland of Nikola Tesla. A race, where YOU are invited to join!
Gendarmstien, or The Gendarme Path, is an 84 km hiking route and the first European Quality Trail in Denmark. It follows the eastern part of the Danish/German border, and is roughly comprised of the same paths the old border patrol – the Gendarms – used to police the area from 1920 to 1958 to prevent smugglers bringing in contraband to Denmark.
The trail offers sights of both historic importance as well as scenic, and you encounter many fun facts about Denmark, its history, geology, flora and fauna along the way.
When Ava Kabouchy took the plunge and exchanged the Atlantic temperatures of Maine for the Mediterranean temperatures of southwest France, she also gained a completely different colour scheme. Based in Perpignan, she spent 3 years in this multi-cultural city and discovered the many layers of French culture and history.
Follow her, as she takes us through this both French and Catalan city and shows us its vibrant beauty.
Denmark is the 2nd flattest country in Europe, only surpassed by The Netherlands by a mere 4 metres. But the Danes don’t let a lack of peaks get in the way of climbing: They head to the trees instead.
Challenge yourself by scaling difficult obstacles many metres above the forest floor, while enjoying the beautiful woodlands and outdoors in Denmark. Here, in the crowns of majestic beech forests, you can get close to a part of nature only reserved for winged creatures and enjoy an active outdoor adventure for the whole family.
On the island of Zlarin, in the Adriatic Sea of Croatia, red corals have always had magical power.
Croatian travel writer Anita Palada takes us to the bottom of the sea, with coral hunter Mirko Milosević, and to the workshop of coral jeweller Miro Bešker. Here, he transforms the unprocessed aquatic gemstones to unique and acclaimed pieces of jewellery. Like a stone carver, Miro senses the energy of each raw coral and liberates the jewel inside.
Here’s the story of The Red Corals of Zlarin.
The Silver Coast of Portugal is not only a haven for surfers and sunseekers. If you venture just a little further inland, you can encounter million-year-old dinosaur footsteps, psychedelic caves and unique geological phenomenas in the Nature Park of Serras de Aire and Candeeiros.
