China Hiking Challenge
24 April-4 May 2010

Join Macmillan for the 2010 China Hiking Challenge and help make a difference to the two million people living with and beyond cancer in the UK. The 10 day trek will take us along ancient and remote sections of The Great Wall as it snakes across the beautiful contours of the Yanshan mountains. Along the way you'll encounter the 300 steps of 'Heaven's Ladder' and enjoy outstanding views of rugged mountains and valleys with lush farmed terraces.

This trek is one of cultural fascination and physical toughness. The richness of The Great Wall's history and the breathtaking scenery will immerse you into the very heart of China and remain with you forever. Join us on our walk along one of the great wonders of the world and steep yourself in thousands of years of history.
