Personal message

Good day all, Thank you for reading this far!

As someone with close ties in the region, the Addo to Eden Corridor project is something I have a firm interest in. When I heard there was an opportunity to raise money in support of the initiative AND get to run/explore the length of it I thought it was too good a chance to pass up.

If you enjoy the outdoors, please please consider adding some spare change to my (or another corridor warrior's) collection fund. It all goes straight to the initiative and giving our children and our children's children some hope of having some natural landscapes to explore.

The run/trek is going to be a massively added bonus!

Don't just send thoughts and prayers, help out with something tangible! The birds and the bees, the leopards and the trees will thank you for helping them keep their home!

Run details:

230 miles or roughly 380km for those who aren't American or 300 years old.

108 hour cut off

Non stop – 1 continuous 'stage'

Thank you for your support!

Eden to Addo Corridor Initiative

Charity Default Logo

THE DREAM: The Eden to Addo vision is based on the practical potential within the landscape connecting the Western and Eastern Cape of South Africa. But this vision is guided by a deeper question and dream: What if we could re-establish ancient elephant migration paths across the Cape, what then? What other wildlife will benefit and how would that restore the ecological balance of the region?
