23/12/2024

A Sunny Conclusion to an Unforgettable Week.

After a week of relentless rain and chilly weather, summer finally arrived on the last day of the Ténéré Travel Trophy 2024. The Mediterranean climate finally made its presence felt, with dry, sunny skies that lifted everyone’s spirits.

From Peruča to Berberov Buk: A Memorable Route

The final stage began at Camping Peruča taking participants through the stunning Svilaja mountains.Along the way, they passed iconic landmarks such as the Ténéré Turn off bij de Manastir Krupa and a filming location from the famous Winnetou films, where seven of the eleven films were shot.

The day concluded at Camping Muškovci Zrmanja, located near the breathtaking waterfalls of Berberov Buk. It was the perfect spot to celebrate reaching the finish line. Some participants braved the icy river for a refreshing dip, while others basked in the warm sunshine and soaked in the spectacular scenery.

Excitement and Joy at the Awards Ceremony

The evening was dedicated to the awards ceremony. After a challenging week, the top three participants in the standings were finally revealed. It was a nail-biting contest right to the end, with a shootout required to determine the final podium places.

Once the awards were handed out, it was time to celebrate! With live music, delicious food, and a relaxed atmosphere, participants and crew shared their stories from the week. Some hit the dance floor, while others enjoyed the last evening of this unforgettable adventure.

Farewell and New Adventures Ahead

Sunday morning marked the time to say goodbye. After a final breakfast together, participants began their journeys home. Some headed straight back, others opted for a scenic detour, and a few took advantage of the dealer package. Motorbikes were carefully loaded onto lorries for transport to the Netherlands, while participants enjoyed a comfortable bus ride to Zadar Airport. .

For the crew, the work wasn’t quite over yet. After tidying the campsite and performing a final check of the buses, we savoured one last lunch with a view of the waterfalls. Then it was time to begin the long journey back to the Netherlands.

Looking Back and Forward to 2025

The adventure ended for me in Breda, where my husband was waiting to welcome me home. Although I look back on this incredible week with a smile, I’m already eagerly anticipating the next edition. In 2025, we’ll embark on a new journey: Scandinavia, with its vast wilderness, majestic fjords, and breathtaking landscapes.

I am incredibly grateful to Jessica and Maarten for allowing me to be part of the crew. Together, we create memories that last a lifetime.
