Story

St Catherine's Hospice cares for local people at the end of their lives in Surrey and Sussex, and supports those closest to them. Every step taken by our hospice heroes on their journey to Petra will help the hospice be there for local people and those close to them when life comes full circle.

Our Trek to Petra will take our team on an adventure following an ancient Bedouin migration route to Petra, experiencing some of the most spectacular natural scenery in Jordan along their journey. This trek is voted by National Geographic as one of the worlds best hikes and it is growing a reputation as the Inca Trail of the Middle East. Our team will be covering up to 10 miles a day over 5 consecutive days of walking and challenging terrain.

Please support our trekkers and help the hospice be there for local people and those close to them when life comes full circle.
