We are faced with a big, big mission – climbing to the top of the mountain Jerikovuori.
We have prepared ourselves for the trip with climbing sticks and a rucksack full of food.
We see one, two, at least five hundred steps.
We have advanced fifty steps. What awaits us above?
When can we eat our packed meal? Do we still have a long way to go?
We have left the stairs behind us. We are sitting on a tree stump. We still have some food left.
Jerikonmäki offers jogging paths in the woods, and a stairway with 156 steps. The top of Jerikonmäki is +35 metres above sea level.
