Charity Trek
Capture the spirit of adventure, while pushing your physical limits and being a positive force for the charity. Experience the peaks and the valleys of trekking through the world’s highest mountains. Be left breathless by the views (and the altitude)! This is not a walk in the park and it may be the most physically demanding endeavour you’ve undertaken. But the satisfaction of achieving your goal, reaching great heights and making a difference is the ultimate reward. We provide experienced and personable guides for the duration of your trip to give you an unrivalled, incredible adventure! The main goal of charity trek is to support to poor – and earthquake victims and for women empowerment.
