Explorer Belt is a expedition, which takes 10 days and at least 200 kilometres. The explorers walk in pairs on some foreign country, usually in Europe.At same time they get to know better different culture and people by interview local people. Every pair have 10-18 projects to do during their expedition. Them consider usually history, traditions, nation etc. These projects are a great help to get new international friends. During their expedition every pair are making diary called "loki".

After the expedition pairs rest for 4-5 days during the judges read their diaries. After the judging there is the Presentation Dinner on some nice place. There everybody walked over 200 km and made their projects will get their EB-badges, but only few will get the Explorer Belt.

After expedition and judging there is usually sight-seeing tour, which takes 10-15 days.
