About the Challenge
Lying in the heart of old Indochina, the small country of Cambodia is home to dazzling green rice-paddies and jungle, temples and ruins, villages of thatched, stilted houses, and small towns where Buddhist temples nestle amongst graceful French-era buildings.
This exciting cultural trek takes us truly off-the-beaten-track, through villages and farmland. Sleeping in village homestays allows an authentic insight into the local way of life. We trek via the highest point in the area: the sacred Phnom Kulen (Kulen Mountain). Dotted with ancient historical sites – but very few tourists – Phnom Kulen is an UNESCO World Heritage Site and, at 487m, visible for miles across the flat farmland and rice-paddies.
This is a hot, dusty challenge, but our finish point at Angkor Wat, one of the most renowned and impressive sights in South-East Asia, is an unforgettable reward for our efforts.
This trip generates around 118 kg of CO₂ per person. Because of our commitment to responsible travel, we offset 100% of these emissions, including flights booked with us.
