My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

High Atlas Challenge, September 2009
When: 29th September - 4th October 2009
Where: High Atlas Mountains, Morocco
What: Biking, hiking, 4x4 driving and survival team challenges
 
The High Atlas Mountains run 1,500 miles from the southern tip of Morocco through arid Algeria to northern Tunisia and the Sahara desert. The challenge is to cross this dramatic mountain range by foot, bike and 4x4 in less than four days.

Starting the adventure in the south west corner of Morocco in Ourzazate we will journey over the High Atlas to reach the capital city of Marrakech.

We will be racing up to 30 miles per day by bike and completing survival and logistical challenges en route to win points. The team will be tested both physically and mentally during this challenge to win the DofE Morocco Trophy.
