The Ultimate Adventure Travel Images Competition
Over on the HostelBookers Facebook page, there’s been a competition to see who’s got the best adventure travel pictures.
What’s an adventure travel picture, we hear you ask? Well, it’s a photo you’ve taken of the most extreme, wild, and maybe even downright scary adventures you’ve encountered on your travels. Maybe it’s a pic of you careering down the Yungas Road (aka the Road of Death) in Bolivia, or a pic you’ve taken of a friend coming face-to-face with a killer whale in the San Juan Islands.
And the prize? A copy of Rough Guides’ Adventure Travel Guide, so you can work out what perilous situation to put yourself in next! Here’s a taster of some of the entries we’ve had so far…
Vannitha Balasingam goes Zorbing…
Victoria Amy Wilkins tries sandsurfing…
And finally, Alex Lichtenburg camps out in the Adirondack Mountains during -10 degree conditions. We felt this last one was so extreme that it stood, somewhat defiantly, in a category all of its own. Alex - you’re made of much, much sturdier stuff than HostelBloggers. A noble effort.
