Hory a nekonečno – Hlaváčková Viktorka (2025)

Mountains and Infinity - the cult book among lovers of mountains and travel has reached its third edition. In addition to minor adjustments in the text, graphics, and layout, it is supplemented with a larger number of photographs, with over 120 pages of images in the book.

During her seven-month journey, Viktorka walked across the Caucasus from the Black Sea in Georgia to the Caspian Sea in Azerbaijan. The book is full of cheerful and thrilling stories and interviews with locals, complemented by observations of how a pilgrim's perception of things and life values changes during solitary time in the mountains. You will learn how the author coped with the attention that a solitary woman on the road attracts, with fear, hunger, bad weather, and bureaucracy. "It is a book about a person who traversed these fascinating countries under the Caucasus, engaged with the people here, defied rain, mountains, and his own weaknesses. He struggled with uncertainty and discomfort, and kept going. Such a journey simply has its meaning," writes author Aleš Palán.
