Registration is now open for the fifth annual international event Youth at the Top! The event will take place on July 11th, 2019 (overnight from the 11th to 12th). The common theme for this year’s edition is “Myths and Mountain Legends”. Protected areas, organizations, youth associations, local professionals, and refuges from all over the Alps and the Carpathians: you are all invited to take part in this educational event and to plan an educational activity on this common topic.

What is Youth at the Top?

Youth at the Top is an international event occurring simultaneously across several countries. It gives young people the opportunity to discover the Alps or the Carpathians through an overnight experience in the mountains. Each registered organization is invited to plan an activity around the common theme “Myths and Mountain Legends” to help younger generations reconnect with the mountains and nature. The event leaves plenty of room for local initiatives and is open to young people from 6 to 28 years old. Participants can film their activity and take part in the video contest “Tell your Legend” on the day of the event. The most innovative video developed during the event will win a prize!
