Sempena sambutan Merdeka tahun ni, kami pakat join Merdeka Geopark Walk (edisi kedua) — cabaran jalan kaki sejauh 80 km keliling Langkawi dalam masa 24 jam.
Perjalanan mula dari Dataran Helang pukul 8 pagi, 30 Ogos, dan habis balik di Dataran Helang pukul 8 pagi, 31 Ogos. Memang bukan senang. Badan dah penat, kaki melecet, kekejangan pun ada. Belum kira panas terik Langkawi yang dok menemani sepanjang jalan.
Tapi yang buat perjalanan ni jadi istimewa ialah - kita tak jalan sorang-sorang.
Sepanjang jalan, ada gelak tawa, sembang-sembang, bagi semangat kat kawan-kawan. Ada yang tunggu bila kawan dah mula perlahan, ada yang hulur bantuan bila perlu. Pendek kata, semangat setia kawan tu sangat padu!
Walaupun setiap orang ada rentak dan kemampuan yang berbeza, kita tetap terus jalan sama-sama. Sikit-sikit, langkah demi langkah.
Sebab bagi kami, itulah semangat Geoparkian yang paling best — jalan sama-sama, tolong sama-sama, sampai pun sama-sama.
Tahniah kepada semua yang berjaya habiskan cabaran 80 km ni. Memang bukan mudah, tapi semua berjaya buat!
Terima kasih sebab sama-sama jadikan Merdeka Geopark Walk ni satu pengalaman yang penuh dengan kenangan, semangat dan paling penting, rasa kebersamaan.
Jumpa lagi tahun depan. Kita buat lagi!
—————————————————————————————
In the spirit of celebrating Merdeka this year, we took on the second edition of the Merdeka Geopark Walk — an 80 km journey around Langkawi, completed over 24 hours.
Starting from Dataran Helang at 8:00 am on 30th August and making our way through the island, then back to Dataran Helang at 8:00 am on 31st August, was certainly a challenge for both mind and body.
But this journey was never just about the distance.
It was about the people who walked alongside us — the conversations, the laughter, the encouragement, and the little moments that kept everyone going. Through the blisters, leg cramps and scorching Langkawi heat, the smiles somehow never stopped.
We were truly inspired by the strength, resilience and warmth shared by all our fellow Geoparkians. Everyone had their own pace, but together, we kept moving forward.
A huge congratulations to everyone who took on this challenge and made it to the finish line. 80 km is no small feat — you guys are absolute rock stars!
Thank you for making this Merdeka Geopark Walk one to remember.
Until next year — let’s do it all over again!
