| Description | Tourist race, organized by the Club of Czech Tourists, is annually attended by several hundred children and adults. Although it is based on cross-country running, a significant role is played by other competitive tasks, such as recognizing of shrubs and trees, recognizing of tourist signs, topographical signs, cultural-cognitive activity, work with a map and compass or outdoors estimating of distance. The temper of racing is very strongly motivating to cope with these tasks. The paper presents results of a research focused on discussion of the success of competitors in children's categories in solving chosen biological and geographical tasks. |
