For the 24 mile and 24 kilometre treks, the minimum age for taking part is 17 years on the day of the event.

All participants MUST bring their own reusable water bottle that can hold at least 2 litres. There will be opportunities to refill it at various points along the route.  You may wish to wear a hydration/camel pack however, this is not essential.

Lunch will be available to eat while on route. A hot meal will also be provided at the finish line (24-mile and 24km participants only).

Snack stops will be set up along the route for those taking part in the 24-mile and 24km distances.

We would also suggest bringing your own additional snacks if you are likely to feel hungry during the day.

Subject to taskings, our helicopter is scheduled to fly over and safely land at Trek 24 – Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. This exciting moment will give Trekkers a unique opportunity to see the aircraft up close, meet the crew, and ask plenty of questions.
