Take on one of the 'New Wonders of the World'. Change lives back home.
Join us in April 2028 as we trek the majestic mountainous terrain of the Great Wall of China, to raise vital funds for North Devon Hospice!
Nine days of grit and wonder as you trek wild ridges, master local traditions, and conquer the legendary heights of the Beijing Tower... with every step helping to provide vital end of life care back home.
Not only will you trek on the wall itself, meticulously built and restored over thousands of years, but you will also have the opportunity to trek through wild and remote landscapes with distant views of green rolling hills, mountain peaks and with one of the great wonders of the world as the backdrop.
Staying in guesthouses throughout the trek allows you to gain an understanding of authentic Chinese culture as you discover more about the lifestyle of the local people and also taste some incredible local cuisine.
This is a moderate to challenging trip for someone of a good general level of fitness. The Great Wall is built on rolling hills and some sections have hundreds of thousands of stairs, some of which have begun to crumble and are more like steep gravel slopes.
Each day you can expect to walk for 5-8 hours on various types of terrain. The activity level is high so don’t expect it to be easy. You will need to train in preparation for this.
And every step you take helps North Devon Hospice continue providing compassionate care to patients and families facing life-limiting illness.
Feel free to have a chat with our Fundraising Team and if there's something we can't answer about the challenge, then we'll put you in touch with our trek experts at True Adventure.
