What is the Northern Lights Trek?

A 5 day trip with 3 days trekking across Iceland, covering approximately 30km of distance in total.

Highlights include:

"I would encourage anyone thinking about doing something like this to go for it. You are not doing it alone and I know I will always treasure this experience, even more so because the money we raised will go on to help others escape the misery of living with an eating disorder. "

Is it the right trek for me?

The trek will be challenging; hiking across snow-covered landscapes and conquering local mountain passes.

The trek is suitable for all abilities with the correct training. The minimum age for this trek is 18 years old (if you are aged between 14 – 17 years you must be accompanied by a parent or guardian).

There will be a strong support team trekking with you, with a professional leader from the UK, as well as local guides.

There will also be regular rest stops for drinks and snacks – there is no problem if you need to take more rest stops.

"If you’re looking at the fundraising target and feeling nervous, my best advice is: just go for it! I didn't think I could do it either, but you absolutely can. Iceland’s landscapes are stunning, and the chance to see the lights dancing is something you’ll never forget."
