Compared to the North China division, this leg has put considerable thought into both the event arrangements and route planning. For the Changbai Mountain hiking activity, the organizing committee has selected a route that offers both challenge and breathtaking scenery, fully showcasing Changbai Mountain’s demanding trails and stunning natural beauty. Along the way, there will also be a mid-level mountain hiking race, a large-scale outdoor bonfire party, and a fun rafting adventure. While challenging the summit, participants can enjoy the natural splendor of Changbai Mountain and experience the joy of outdoor activities, delivering a uniquely crafted and unforgettable journey through the wonders of Changbai Mountain.
Most notably, in line with the consistent environmental mission of the "Leaf with Me"·2012 Lafuma Hiking Season, the organizing committee has introduced a special public welfare activity at the Changbai Mountain leg: the "Love Graffiti" Wildlife Conservation campaign. Through unique interactive games and innovative, heartwarming formats, the concept of green outdoor living is shared with the public.
According to the organizing committee, this public welfare activity will adopt a special "love graffiti" approach. By encouraging participants to learn about Changbai Mountain’s ecological environment and drawing inspiration from stories encountered during the event, everyone can create artwork and craft creative messages on designated "love graffiti boards" with the theme of protecting wildlife. Together, they will produce a warm and heartfelt public welfare piece.

In the upcoming Northwest and Southwest divisions, the Lafuma brand will continue to uphold this philosophy and promote the spirit of green outdoor living," said Park Jong-hyun, Deputy General Manager of Business Support at Lafuma China, offering an in-depth interpretation of the event.
