Who are people behind hikr.org?

First of all, there are more than a hundred active contributors of hikr.org who publish here their reports and photos. Those people created all the content you can find here!

There is also a small team composed Anna (Anna Putrino} and Stani (Stanislav Chachkov). We are developpers and administrators of this site. We are addicted to mountains and to web programming. Hikr is our main and only project.

We live in Unterengadin, the most beautiful and probably the less expensive part of Switzerland. We don’t need car, tv, mobile phones and similar « consumer goods », so Hikr' budget, composed of our living costs and a little bit of computer infrastructure, is very small. However it’s not easy to find the money for a non-profit and non-commercial project like this one. Our sources of funding are sponsors, Pro-users, ads, donations and, last but not least, our own pocket.

Contact. You can contact the hikr team by email: admin@hikr.org or by internal private message.

Our mascot and PR specialist is Zina.
