Trek Peru - Q&A

How much will it cost?

£349 registration fee + £3,750 minimum sponsorship. The actual costs of the trip are £1,875 so the MS Trust receives £1,875 plus every penny raised over the minimum sponsorship. The sponsorship raised will enable the MS Trust to take positive steps to improve the lives of people living with MS today.

Is the trip for me?

This trip is suitable for people of all ages. The one thing everyone has in common is a sense of adventure and the desire to do something challenging for a great cause! Some people will come with friends or family but most people won't know anyone on the trip so everyone will be in the same situation - all welcome!

How fit do I need to be?

People from all walks of life will take part in this challenge but it's vital that you train so that you get the most out of the trek. We will send you a suggested training plan and are on hand to help you with your training tips.

Will you help me?

YES! We have a dedicated event manager on hand from the time that you register through to the time you go on the trip. The confirmation pack you will be sent when you reserve your place will cover everything you'll need to know. We are always just a phone call away and our aim is to make the trip as enjoyable as possible from start to finish! We even organise a get-together for everyone going on the trip so you can meet all your fellow trekkers and swap training and fundraising ideas!

What's the food like?

We'll enjoy delicious Peruvian specialities such as local fish and lamb dishes with a few European additions! Vegetarian diets can be catered for.

Will I be able to raise the sponsorship money?

YES! As long as you allow plenty of time you'll find that you will have no trouble raising the minimum amount - and then some! Our information pack contains some simple fundraising ideas and we will support you every step of the way in achieving your targets and making your fundraising fun and easy! See our A-Z of fundraising ideas to get you started.

Can I stay on in Peru for longer?

YES! For a nominal administration fee your flight can be extended (subject to availability). This will give you the opportunity to discover more of this amazing country independently.
