Charity Trek in Iceland

Iceland was one of the most incredible experiences I have enjoyed. A trekking landscape of complete contrasts, from snow fields and glacial rivers to rolling hills and lava plateaus. A fantastic journey with resilient and kind people. Totally worthwhile.

Jen Southern

Trekking in Iceland has been a highlight of my life so far. I loved every minute of this breath-taking experience.

Naomi Gordon

I just want to say what the Iceland challenge did for me as a person, I really want to thank you all for that. I have the medal and certificate on my wall and when I think I cannot do something I look at it and see that I can.
