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.

Tuesday 19th June – Hathersage and Stanage Edge – 6 miles (3 Hrs)



With Bernard – another very enjoyable walk in the Peak District - an uphill pull with a fresh breeze at the top a short break to enjoy the spectacular views and then a testing descent back to Hathersage past North Lees Hall built in the last decade of the 16th century, an imposing 16th century tower house which is believed to have been the inspiration for Thornfield Hall, Mr Rochester's house in Charlotte Brontë's famous novel, Jane Eyre.
