Ethiopia Simien Mountain Trek

30 September - 10 October 2010

Join us on this extraordinary trek through the beautiful Ethiopia Simien Mountains to the awesome 4533m summit of Ras Dashen. This challenge is certainly not one to be missed, as we trek amongst one of Africa's most beautiful mountain ranges and a World Heritage Site.  The Simien Mountains National Park is full of outstanding beauty, with mountains that leave you speechless, panoramic views that take your breath away and hundreds of baboons, creating great entertainment as you walk.

This unique and special event will raise money to support MAG (Mines Advisory Group), one of the world's leading landmine clearance organisations. MAG currently works in 16 countries worldwide, reducing the suffering caused by the presence of landmines and unexploded bombs, and empowering people affected by conflict to rebuild their lives.

To take part in this challenge of a lifetime you will need to pay a registration fee of £300 and to raise at least £3,350 in sponsorship, half of which will support MAG's mine clearance programmes.

Register by 30 October 2009 and receive a £50 discount on your registration fee.

How to raise your sponsorship

£3350 is a lot of money to raise and we appreciate how daunting it may seem. Raising the sponsorship is part of the challenge and it can be difficult, however it is totally achievable and once you set your mind to it you will reach that target! We are here to help you every step of the way providing fundraising advice and materials.  Once we have received your completed registration forms we will send you a fundraising pack to get you started and you can get in touch any time to run through ideas or discuss your plans. Download our Top Ten Fundraising Tips.

   

How to register

1. Complete the Registration Forms

2. Return forms to MAG with the £300 registration fee (note, the registration fee is non-refundable and is not included in the £3,350 sponsorship target).
