Varusteleka's remote soldier march group departure


27.4.2024

Now you have an excellent opportunity to enjoy the landscapes of Lake Pyhäjärvi in Tampere with an amateur-level march. @varusteleka, you can find more information about the march and possibly other interesting things. Join us for Varusteleka's remote soldier march group departure on Saturday, April 27th!

Register for the march on Varusteleka's website to earn your march morale badge after completing the march! We'll post the link in our story, which you can also find later in the highlights if the story gets lost at the time of publication.

The march can be completed in three different categories:

General category: Free clothing, free footwear, at least a 10 kg backpack throughout the journey
Military category: Camouflage uniform, combat boots (covering the ankle generously), at least a 10 kg backpack throughout the journey
Reconnaissance category: Same minimum requirements as the Military category. Additionally, overnight stay in the field (bivouac, tarp, tent, lean-to shelter, or similar field accommodation) and march back the next day. Daily march distances can be freely chosen from the available options, e.g., 50 + 50 km. NOTE! Know your own performance capability and act responsibly and sensibly.
I (Johanna) was thinking of participating in the general category at least 🤓

Here's how you prepare for the march:

a good backpack
comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing
a head covering (sunglasses wouldn't hurt either)
PLENTY of water
enough easy-to-carry snacks
at least 10 kg of weight in the backpack
blister plasters
From the image carousel, you can see the planned route (Lake Pyhäjärvi scenic route approx. 30 km) as well as a picture of the morale badge 💪🏼
