Almost 90 hardcore climbers set off for Lysá Hora in Beskydy mountains, aiming to set record

On Saturday, nearly ninety hardcore climbers set off for Lysá Hora, the highest peak of the Moravian-Silesian Beskydy mountain range. They want to set a Czech record and possibly a world record for the number of people on a mass hike in the ‘hardcore style’, with minimal clothing and equipment. They began in the village of Ostravice in the Frýdek-Místek region, and about a tenth of the participants are women.

“This hardcore climb to Lysá Hora is about the largest number of people hiking together half-naked. Our goal is to set a Czech and world record, because nothing like this has been recorded anywhere, so we want to start it this way," Dominik Luks, the organiser, told ČTK.
