In 2016, children up to the age of 12 will be able to take part in a series of public walks organised by Cactus and the Fédération Luxembourgeoise de Marche Populaire (FLMP).
The so-called 'Yuppi Walks' will be generally comprised of a distance of 5-6 kilometres and have been developed within the framework of public walks for both young and old organised over 10km and 20km courses.
The 'Yuppi-Walk 2016' challenge will be composed of six separate walks. Each young participant of any age up to 12 years old will be able to apply for a free participation card with which to collect stamps at various checkpoints. Young walkers who participate in 4 Yuppi-Walks will receive a reward from Yuppi on 15 October 2016 in Dudelange, and a special gift will be reserved for those who take part in all six Yuppi-Walks.
