2024-03-16 07:00 - 14:30 | Lari
Family, friends, fellow adventurers, and lovers of the great outdoors, we come together with heavy hearts to honor the memory of our dear friend and hiking companion, Wanene. Nesh was the embodiment of joy on the trails. Her infectious smile, boundless energy, and zest for life inspired us all to cherish every moment amidst nature’s embrace.
It is only fitting that we pay tribute to Nesh by gathering for a memorial hike, retracing the very paths that brought her such profound happiness. On 16th march, we will embark on a journey to gatamaiyu 3 trail, a place that represents her love for water bodies & wild swimming.
As we traverse the winding trails, let us revel in the memories of her contagious laughter echoing through the valleys, the sparkle in her eyes as she took in each breathtaking vista, and the unwavering camaraderie that binds us together as a hiking family.
This memorial hike is not a solemn procession but a celebration of NESH’s vibrant spirit, her unwavering love for adventure, and we embrace the beauty of nature that she cherished so deeply, and let our footsteps be a testament to the indelible mark she has left on our lives
