Trek Cuba on 4 -13 March 2006

After the success of their first challenge event to Mount Kilimanjaro, the National Endometriosis Society in the UK are excited to announce their next challenge to raise funds and awareness for endometriosis.

Their Trek Cuba Challenge takes place in March 2006, where they will be taking a group trekking deep in the Cuban countryside on a spectacular journey through limestone canyons and across forested hillsides. The challenge takes place in the stunning Sierra del Escambray Mountains where they will trek through coffee plantations, orange orchards with giant palms lining the way and swim in crystal clear waterfalls. Most nights we camp in this peaceful wilderness.

Christopher Columbus first set eyes on Cuba in 1492 and described it as "the most beautiful land human eyes have ever seen"

Anyone, who wishes to support endometriosis can take part. Anyone aged 18-80 are welcome. This will be a challenge with many highlights and you’ll find that there a great sense of team spirit and support.

2006 is the 25th anniversary of the National Endometriosis Society, and this event will play a major role in raising funds as part of their celebrations.

Each participant has to raise a minimum of £2,250 and hopefully many women and men, from all over the world, will join what promises to be an exciting trip. Raising sponsorship may seem daunting but as with their previous event to Kilimanjaro, many of theirchallengers exceeded the target by some way. When you register you will be sent a fundraising pack of information and ideas on how to raise funds.
