International Mountain Day: The Year in Review

Since 2003, December 11th has been celebrated… This is a day which is especially important for all of the mountaineers, mountain lovers and for those involved in mountain tourism. A meeting with the Minister of Sport and Youth Affairs was organized on December 11th, in order to make the day more memorable and significant. The achievements of 2018 and the partnerships and goals of 2019 were discussed during the meeting.
