Shai Reserve & Kwaminga Park Done
Shai gave the year its first real outdoor memory: reserve ground, cave air, tired legs, and the moment the group stopped feeling new to each other.

BORDER RUN
DECEMBER · 2026
"The page should already feel alive before the middle of the year. Start with culture, cross the border early, come back home stronger, then close with a finale people plan around."
— Zico · Founder
Set the tone early.
Ada opened with shoreline and story. Togo put the first passport stamp on the year before it had time to settle.
Come back home, then push west.
Shai and Oboadaka Waterfall reset the body. Côte d’Ivoire widens the frame and pushes the year west again.
Close in the highlands, finish across the border.
Wli Waterfalls Camp and Amedzofe carry the home stretch. Benin gives the year one last loud finish.
