Winter Wandering Challenge- can we do 1677 miles?
Didcot, England, United Kingdom
Aim: We are raising money for a charitable cause that is very important to us so please donate and help us reach our target
As members of Girlguiding we are completing this walking challenge in December and January to raise money for Foxie's Future who are hoping to save Foxlease an activity centre in the New Forest which was gifted to the Girl Guide Association over 100 years ago.
We are all members of Girlguiding who want Foxlease to be around for years to come so future girls and young women in Girlguiding have somewhere to go for adventures.
1677 miles is the distance between 8 places in the UK named after the charity's mascot the fox:
Foxlease to Foxhole (Cornwall) - 168 miles
Foxhole to Porth Llwynog - 322 miles
Porth Llwynog to Sionnach - 232miles
Sionnach to Foxhole (Scotland) - 284 miles
Foxhole to Fox Clough - 335 miles
Fox Clough to Foxton Locks -125 miles
Foxton Locks to Foxbury- 110 miles
Foxbury to Foxlease - 101 miles
Between 8 of us that is 209 miles each in two months, quite a challenge! Lets see how far we can get. We'll keep you updated with our progress as we go.
Anything you can contribute towards helping us achieve our target will be massively appreciated.
Thank you from the Wintry Walkers
