KILIMANJARO

KILIMANJARO
Another trek challenge completed - Reaching
the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro at 19,341 feet above sea level and the highest
free standing mountain in the world is my proudest achievement so far. I didn’t start trekking until I retired and I
have surprised myself (and many others) in what I have accomplished. I have had
the most incredible experiences and met some amazing and inspirational people. Thank you so much for all of your
support on each endeavour and for believing in me. You have helped me to raise £9,500 on this
trek taking the total for all three treks to a fantastic £18,000, with Gift Aid to be added to that total.

Week 12 - Scarborough to Robin Hood's Bay


7 hrs with James & Hannah - the toughest walk yet! - 15 miles. This walk is part of the Cleveland Way, one of the national trails of Britain (the second one established after the Penine Way) that begins in Helmsley onto Saltburn and down the coast to Filey, 110 miles in total. A roller coaster walk of sea cliff path hills with some steep climbing (shown left) - challenging but absolutely beautiful. We managed to avoid the forecast showers and actually had quite a bit of sunshine but were plagued with flies for quite a stretch!
