Dear friends, if you want to see some really nice pictures of the Jarawa Hills, click HERE. It was on the 12th December, the weather was beautiful, the river was not totaly empty yet and the hikers were fun.
1st hike to the Shere Pick for the newly started Dry Season. 2 days hike with and a very nice week-end (and very green as well as we planted hundreds of trees on the way...!).

The main purpose of our coming: Planting trees Kings & Queens Academy (KQA) Grade 4 & 5 went on hiking expedition on the 17th of October. The hike was a long and tuff one, but we discovered many plants, trees and rock formation. Children enjoyed and teachers were tired.
Ladies and Gentlemen, my digital camera is dead. This may explain why, despite our intense and continuous activities, we could not expose our latest pictures. I thank here those who send me their photos, so that I can update the site. The Yellow Day (13th September ): Thanks to Guillaume who could take those wonderful pictures of the yellow Plateau. We went looking for some misterious water falls we never found (the rivers were too full), and we arrived in a yellow paradise... Pictures Guillaume Jamet
Since Kim became a new Ecotourhills partner and a movie director, we have no reason not to show you our latest hikes.
On the 7th February, we went round the Vom Hills, passing on top of the Ganawuri volcano. As we are young and srtong we decided to explore a short cut. Nice climbing inside the rocks, scary slope while going down. Thanks to the local hunter for assistance.
Christmas / New year. Despite the curfew, some visitors came from all over Nigeria and even from Europe. The Harmattan was kind with us and decided to delay its dusty venue.
15 & 16th November, we climbed on top of the Shere mountain in 1 day. Then we went down a little to meet the camp settled. Despite a cold night, it was a good fun.
