One of the most experienced Czech Himalayan climbers. A naturalist, photographer and beetle collector from the Elbe region. And among them, Manásla (8163 m), a mountain that has made it clear to them several times that reaching the summit is not a given.
Honza "Tráva" Trávníček has climbed six eight-thousanders, including K2 and Annapurna, most of them without supplemental oxygen. Petr Jan Juračka is a photographer, science popularizer, and a man who went from university beetle collections to the highest mountains on the planet. Together, they have gone on several expeditions to places where oxygen, strength, and sensible ideas run out.
Twice Manaslu. Twice by helicopter. Once Broad Peak with oxygen "just for testing". And finally a third return to Manaslu - this time together and with oxygen on your back. The expedition will take place in September 2026 and this show will be about how it all turned out - or didn't turn out.
The result is a raw, funny and unexpectedly human travelogue about friendship, hypoxia, endless rice, coffee and situations that you really can't come up with at home with PowerPoint.
Don't expect a classic mountaineering lecture. This is Himalayan stand-up from a place where mistakes are unforgivable — but the humor still works.
This special tour will not be repeated, so don't miss it.
Monday 15. 3. ** UFFO ** 19:30 ** admission 370, 350, 320 CZK ** advance ticket sale from 7. 7.
