Anne’s Sierra Nevada Trek 2026 for Velindre Cancer Care

Sierra Nevada Trek 2026 · 7 October 2024 to 31 January 2027 · Start fundraising for this event
Join me, as I take on my toughest adventure yet: the Sierra Nevada Trek 2026 to support Velindre, Wales’ leading cancer care charity! From June 18th–20th, 2026, I’ll be conquering the rugged, breathtaking trails of Spain’s Sierra Nevada mountains, starting in the charming village of Capileira, to raise vital funds for cancer patients and their families. I’m thrilled that my good friend Clare has also accepted this challenge and will be trekking alongside me. We’re both very excited for what lies ahead!
This isn’t my first walking challenge, but it’s by far the hardest. Over three intense days, I’ll tackle steep ascents and stunning valleys, reaching altitudes up to 3,482 meters at the summit of Mulhacén, mainland Spain’s highest peak. From Capileira to this towering summit, the demanding terrain will push me to my limits. I will be diving into intense and regular training to get fit for this epic journey, and I can’t wait to share this experience with Clare and the other trekkers.
Why am I doing this? Because Velindre’s work changes lives. Every pound raised funds specialist cancer treatments, innovative research, and compassionate care for patients across Wales. Your donations could provide comfort packs for chemotherapy patients, support groundbreaking clinical trials, or offer emotional care for families facing cancer’s challenges. Every step I take is for them.
I’m aiming to raise £2,600, and I need your help to get there. Whether it’s £5, £20 or £50, every donation powers my trek and brings hope to Velindre’s patients. Donate today and follow my journey with #SierraNevadaTrek2026 - I will be sharing our training highs and lows as we gear up for this unforgettable challenge!
Donate Now and cheer me on as I climb mountains for an incredible cause. Wish me luck and thank you for being part of my story!
Hasta la vista,
Anne
