INDUSTRY.co.id - Semarang - The role of women in the world of outdoor activities may have long incised achievements in Indonesia. Starting from wall climbers and cliffs, up to seven summiteers, always record a record from Indonesian women.
However, for the ordinary people, the awareness of the essence of an adventure in the wild is still lacking. The importance of prioritizing safety and maintaining the environment is always at a loss with ego and self-interest.
To educate the public particularly women, EIGER, through EIGER Adventure Service Team (EAST), held Women Adventure Camp (WAC) 2018 aimed at women who love outdoor activities. The event, held on 20-22 April 2018, took place at Mount Ungaran, Semarang regency, Central Java.

"The facilities are very complete to learn and practice. Starting from the camping ground, the path, up to the peak atmosphere," added Galih Donikara who is familiarly called Kang Galih this.

Divided into 3 posts, the climbing route is a gentle and leafy road. Only from heading 3 to a fairly steep peak with the smell of moss, as well as slippery solid ground.
