Hapisga Challenging Experience

From the field to life

Our activity relies on the therapeutic and empowering power of abseiling, climbing, and challenging outdoor activities. The physical and mental encounter with the cliff requires participants to step out of their familiar comfort zone, rebuild self-confidence and environmental trust, and discover deep down hidden strengths they didn't know existed. This is a powerful process in which each controlled slide from the cliff, along with the success of reaching the bottom safely, translates directly into solid self-confidence, mental strength, and a real ability to deal with obstacles and challenges in everyday life at home and in settings.

Over the years, we have become a stable anchor for hundreds of young people who have come to us when they are dealing with complex life realities and challenging difficulties. Through the terrain, the ropes and the teamwork, we have helped them break through their own glass ceiling, recover, and pave the way back to optimal, positive and normative integration into the community, their studies and their families. The practical tools and life skills that participants acquire in "The Summit: A Challenging Experience" accompany them long after the ropes fold.

Today, we are proud to see an ever-expanding community of adult skiers and mountaineers – a community that provides its members with a true warm home and a deep sense of belonging. It is a unique space that naturally combines the world of religious values and identity with the spirit of adventure and challenge, allowing each and every one of them to grow, take initiative, take responsibility, and lead their lives to new and higher peaks than ever before.
