The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileThe trek is arduous and steep, taking us through spectacular scenery of cirques, rocky ridges, beech forests and mountain lakes. We walk on remote trails, reaching 2522m before we descend into Spain. Whenever the going gets tough, we have only to think of those who undertook the same paths in fear of their lives to find the determination to continue.
This is an incredible trek with a poignant undertone – a personal challenge which also commemorates the bravery of others.
