HISTORY OF AKLVK

AKLVK (ALPINIST CLUB OF SKIERS OF EASTERN GIANT MOUNTAINS) has existed on both Czech and foreign scenes since 2004. From original number of eight founders, the club has expanded to thirty active members. Half of them are young people under twenty years; the club trains them and educates them to be top racers on both Czech and international scenes. In 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009, the club was the organizer of the Night of Seal Skins race in Janské Lázně. More information on www.skimo.cz
