JUST HIKING II

The non-profit association No More Walking together with SOLCIR, is organizing another hike in Font Roja Natural Park on November 11th to support unaccompanied minors in Greece.

The Just Hiking event organized last May was an absolute success, with the participation of more than 50 hikersand raising a total amount of €2,047!

Enjoy a morning of hiking and picnic surrounded by nature and stunning views, meeting people and getting to know more about the innovative program that No More Walking is financing to support unaccompanied minors in Greece! This time we will walk through a different trail and have the opportunity to enjoy the Park dressed up in beautiful autumn colours.

We will walk for approximately two hours on comfortable trails, suitable for everyone, reaching the Barranco del Infierno, among other ravines and cliffs.

When? Saturday November 11th, 2017, at 10:00 a.m. Where? We will meet at Font Roja’s Sanctuary, near Alcoy, where you can also find the Visitor’s Centre, parking spaces, toilets and a restaurant. Click here to see how to get there.

Why? They are the reason behind this hike: the 2,300 children who are currently living in the streets and in refugee camps in Greece, and who have lost their families in their home countries or during their dangerous journey towards Europe. Last year No More Walking financed an innovative program of the Greek NGO METAdrasi who managed to bring 5 minors to Portugal, where they have been provided with a safe environment to grow up in. Our goal is to help many more children who are waiting for someone to give them a chance in life. Help us to help them find their path in life! We will tell you more about the program during the hike.
