Grand Unplanned Southern Trek – Germany, Hungary and Southern Territories

This time we have two travel reports, one group started at Bournemouth U.K.(EGHH) and returned across the Genoa bay into France (blue circuit). A report by Nigel Thomas. The second group began the tour at Kortrijk Belgium (EBKT) and preferred the challenge of the Brenner Pass crossing through the Alps (red circuit). Danny Debrandt has drawn up a report.

The purple section has been covered together. The direction of the tour is clockwise, enjoy it!.

Danny report:

Somewhere in November 2002 we decided that we would try and see if our glued aluminium Grummans could withstand the crossing of what used to be named the “Iron Curtain”. We gave it a name: Grand Unplanned Southern Trek Germany Hungary and Other Southern Territories, GUST-GHOST was born.
