China, Great Wall Trek Charity Challenge

This is one of our outline challenge itineraries. If you are interested in running this as a fundraising event, please contact us for more information. If you are looking to take part in a charity challenge please see upcoming events.

China is a land of towering mountains and epic landscapes - background scenery to the fall of dynasties, the rise of emperors and the turning of the revolutionary wheel.

China’s Great Wall was started over 2000 years ago and what was once a symbol of tyranny is now the nation's leading attraction, a landmark that stretches 6000km in a dotted line across the country and is quoted as being the only manmade structure visible from space.

This spectacular 6-day trek is one not to be missed as we take challenging steps on this stunning structure, witnessing China’s fascinating culture, intriguing history and beautiful scenery.
