Kufamba kune imwe yenzira dzakakurumbira dzekufambira mberi. Pashure pezvose, kukwira pamusoro peKirimanjaro nekushanyira Everest Base Camp kune mabhuku ezvinyorwa zvevanhu vakawanda. Asi imwe nzira yakakura yakareba yakatarwa uye inovakwa muEastern Europe inopikira kupa mutsva mutsva kune avo vakatovepo uye vakaita izvozvo.
The Transcaucuses Trail (TCT) inowedzera makiromita 1500 kuburikidza neCaucuses Mountains, iyo inoshanda somuganhu neRussia neGeorgia, Armenia, uye Azerbaijan.
Nzira inotanga paGungwa Dzvuku kumadokero uye inoguma pamhenderekedzo yeCaspian Sea kumabvazuva. Pakati penzira, nzira yacho inosara pamumvuri wemakomo makomo akachekidzwa nechando, mukati uye kunze kwemasango akaoma, kuburikidza nemisha yekare, uye kumativi akapfuura nemipata, unosangana nevanhu vakasiyana-siyana uye zvipenyu zviri munzira.
Zvakanaka, zvingazoita zvose zvezvinhu izvozvo kana zvapera. Nokuti ikozvino, iyo pfungwa inononoka kuva yechokwadi nekuda kweboka revanhu vakazvitsaurira vanozvipira uye vanozvipira avo vave vachifamba zvishoma nezvishoma nzira pamwe chete, vachiongorora zvikamu zvaro zvakasiyana, uye vachibatsira kukaronga vamwe kuti vauye zvakare. Vanhu ivavo vari kuvakawo nzira iyo vachienda uye vachiisa nzira dzekuisa nzira kuti zvive nyore kutevera, nekutarisira kuti pakuita iyo nzira ichakwezva vamwe vashanyi munzvimbo iyo.
Chii chakasununguka kune Trekkers
Nokuti ikozvino, zvimwe zvikamu zve nzira iyo yakazara yakazara yevatengesi, ine zvikamu zvakakura zvichiri kuongororwa uye kucheneswa kune vamwe.
Icho chinotora nguva refu, basa rakaoma iro rinotarisirwa kutora makore mashanu kupedzisa, asi kana rikazarura rinovimbisa kutora vanofamba mumasango ezvakaitika, nhoroondo, uye tsika.
Imwe nzvimbo yakadaro inzvimbo yeUpper Svaneti. Iyi Nzvimbo yeUnited World Heritage inonyanya kuzivikaniswa kwete kwete chete maonero ayo anoshamisa eMakomo eCaucuses asi yakawanda yemisha iyo inoramba iine mienzaniso inoshamisa yemasvingo emakore.
Izvo zvivakwa ipapo zvinosanganisira mazana maviri emadzimba emasvingo ayo akamboshandiswa zvose sezvivako zvekugara uye nzvimbo yekudzivirira pamusoro pehondo dzinopinda. Izvo zvivako zvakachengetedzwa zvakanyatsochengetedzwa uye zvakachengetedzwa kuti zvibvumira zvizvarwa zvinotevera kuti zvivaone zvakare.
Migwagwa yakawanda yemazuva ano yeTCT inotevera maimbore eSoviet-era, akawanda ayo ave akawandisa. Nzira dzekare dzakakosha dzakawanda kwazvo dzakapera panguva ino, uye mamarita emunharaunda anowanzove akashongedzwa uye akazongopera. Asi, boka rakatsaurirwa iro riri kushanda pakugadzira nzira yacho zvishoma nezvishoma asi zvechokwadi rinovandudza icho. Vanoramba vachitsvaga nzvimbo yacho kuti vagadzire migwagwa yaimbove iripo, uyewo kugadzirisa zvitsva.
Asi, iyo haisi yega matambudziko anotarisana neboka. Mune imwe nyaya ichangobva kubuda kubva kuNational Geographic iyo inojekesa kuedza kwekugadzira Transcaucuses Trail, boka rinotaura kuti kunewo zvizhinji zvekusafarira kubva kune hurumende dzenharaunda. Vakawanda havana hanya nezvenzira itsva yekufamba-famba ichigadzirwa mumashure avo, uye vamwe vari pachena pachena nezvepfungwa yacho, kunyange kana zvichireva zvinogona kuva vatengi vemari. Kunyange zvakadaro, vatungamiri veTCT vari kuramba vachienderera mberi mberi nezvirongwa zvavo, uye zvishoma nezvishoma asi vachigadzirisa kutsigira kwechirevo chacho.
Kunyange zvakadaro, pane urongwa hwokupedzisa kuvaka iyo nzira mukati memakore mashanu inogona kunge iri tariro.
The Trail's Impact
Kana iyo yakazaruka, zvakadaro, vashanyi vachagamuchirwa nevanhu vomunharaunda avo vanoda chaizvo kuti vafambi vauye kukona yavo yenyika. Muchirangaridzo yeEastern Europe ichange ichinyatsooneka, ine zvinyorwa zviduku zvitsva, nzvimbo dzinokurudzira, uye mabhii akasiyana-siyana ose anovatsanangurira. Ichi chikamu chenyika iyo yakaona mikana mashoma emari mumakore achangobva kupfuura, uye kureba kwemafambi ekufamba-famba kungangodaro kuve kuchinja kukuru kune mamwe mashoma emisha inowira mumugwagwa wayo.
Iye zvino, mazana emakiromita emakiromita emugwagwa akazaruka uye vanofamba-famba vatotanga kusvika. Zvimwe zvikamu zvemugwagwa zviri kuzarurirwa nguva yose, uye kureba kuri kuwedzerwa nguva dzose.
Kana zvose zvataurwa uye zvaitwa, TCT ichadzungaira kuburikidza ne 17 dzakasiyana-siyana nzvimbo, dzine dzinopfuura gumi nemaviri mitauro inotaurwa pamusoro payo. Ichapawo nzvimbo dzakawanda (zvinomwe zvinomwe pamusoro pemamita 5000), zvinoshamisa zvechiitiko chechiitiko, uye mukana wekushanyira nzvimbo iyo nhoroondo yakasiya iyo inogona kuregererwa.
