Trek to Saghro 2024

Trek to Saghro 2024 · 17 November 2024
In November 2024, we had been planning to trek across the Jordanian desert, to Petra. The decision was made recently that the risk was too great given the unrest in the area so now we are embarking on a 5 day trek across the Saghro Mountain Range in Morocco. Covering an average of 10 miles a day through the lunar landscapes of the rocky outcrops and valleys that separate the High Atlas mountains from the Sahara desert, with temperatures ranging from 0-30 degrees, we'll spend 5 nights camping as we complete the trek. Neither of us are strangers to long distance walks, but this will take us both totally out of comfort zones, and will be a huge challenge. The terrain, the ascents, the edges, the temperatures, and not to mention the camping.... we'll need to dig deep both physically and mentally to make it to the end.
We're taking on the challenge to raise funds for the incredible St Catherine's Hospice who do so much for people at the time they need it the most. They provide outstanding care 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 mountain adventure will help the hospice be there for local people and those close to them when life comes full circle and any support you can give us will help with the much needed motivation!
Please support us and help the hospice, at a time when vital services are being cut your support is so important, thank you.
