2 Your adventure starts here Discover the volcanoes of Costa Rica. With day treks on Irazú, Poás, Arenal, Cerro Chato and Rincón de la Vieja, this adventure will take you up close to the craters, unique flora and fauna, and pristine rainforests that surround these natural phenomena. Trek through tropical rainforest, see exotic wildlife and walk through the Arenal canopy. This is both a physical challenge and an opportunity to experience an incredible country. Challenge yourself and raise vital funds for the Marie Curie Hospice, Newcastle. Trekking for the Marie Curie Hospice, Newcastle will help us to continue providing expert care, guidance and support for people living with a terminal illness, and their families. Last year our dedicated doctors and nurses cared for more than 600 patients at a cost of 4.6 million. This care would not be possible without the support of people like you.

3 Day 1 Depart the UK arrive San José We depart from the UK and fly to San José, Costa Rica. On arrival we will transfer to the centrally located hotel and, depending on available time, relax and explore the sights of San José. In the evening we will meet the guide and have a trip briefing. Day 2 Irazú Volcano to Prusia Forest Reserve 5-6 hours trekking After breakfast at the hotel we will transfer to Irazú Volcano for our first day of trekking. Irazú Volcano is still active; it last made international headlines when it erupted in 1963 on the day that former US President John F. Kennedy visited the country. The eruption decimated crops in the area but left the soil enriched for decades to come. We will spend the day trekking through stunning rainforests, Thinkstock 3
4 visiting some of the craters and continuing along the trail until we arrive at Prusia Forest Reserve in Irazú Volcano National Park, where we will meet the vehicle and transfer back to our hotel in San José. Thinkstock Day 3 Poás Volcano National Park and Laguna de Hule hike 5 hours trekking During our trek in Poás National Park, we will view the stunning crater and lake, said to be one of the most beautiful in Costa Rica. Keep an eye out for the wide variety of birds found here. After a short transfer we will trek the picturesque Laguna de Hule trail before a late afternoon transfer back to San José. 4
5 Day 4 Arenal Volcano 5-6 hours trekking After checking out of our hotel and having breakfast, we will transfer to the Arenal Volcano area, which is blessed with surrounding natural beauty, including the imposing volcano itself and the amazing Lake Arenal. We will hike high above the treetops, across a system of suspension bridges on a dedicated canopy walk trail, allowing us to observe the rainforest at its best before staying in a hotel in the Arenal area. Day 5 Cerro Chato climb 5-6 hours trekking Cerro Chato is a dormant volcano that flanks the south-east side of the Arenal Volcano. It has been inactive for around 3,500 years and rests at an elevation of 3,740 ft (1,140 m). We will start from the west side of the mountain, and walk towards the crater lake up on the summit. After enjoying the panoramic views, we will descend the east side of the mountain to La Fortuna Waterfall, before continuing back to the hotel. Day 6 Arenal to Rincón de la Vieja Volcano 4-6 hours trekking Saying farewell to Arenal, we will transfer to Rincón de la Vieja Volcano, following the circuit that treks to Chorreras Waterfall. Here you can choose to either spend some time swimming and enjoying the surrounding rainforest, or undertake an optional canyon canopy tour complete with zip lines and Tarzan swings. Tonight we will stay in a local hacienda in Rincón de la Vieja. Marie Curie Shutterstock 5
6 Day 7 Climb Rincón de la Vieja Volcano 5-6 hours trekking After breakfast we will start our climb to the summit of Rincón de la Vieja Volcano. Starting from100 metres, we ascend to 2,900 metres to be greeted by nine different craters and experience the change in microclimate. We descend down to Hermosa Beach to celebrate the completion of the five volcano trek. Day 8 Depart San José After breakfast we will check out of our hotel and transfer to Juan Santamaría International Airport in San José for our overnight flight back to London, arriving the following day. Day 9 Arrive back to UK The itinerary is subject to change 6 Thinkstock

8 Where your money goes 130 pays for someone with a terminal illness to attend the day therapy unit at the hospice. 400 pays for someone to stay in a Marie Curie Hospice for 24 hours, so that they can receive the hands-on care they need in their final days. 1,250 pays for a portable oxygen system that will relieve distressing symptoms wherever the patient happens to be, so they aren t confined to bed. Many of our hospice trekkers find they exceed the minimum sponsorship level. You could make your support go even further by paying for 24 hours of care on a day of your choice. You might want to recognise an important birthday or anniversary, remember a relative or friend, or mark a significant milestone. We ll create a personalised keepsake certificate, and, if you d like, we can display it in the hospice reception on your chosen day. It costs 6,584 every day to cover the hospice s running costs. To find out more, contact your local hospice fundraising team. Adam Serfontein and his wife Rachael have donated 6,584 to the Pay for a Day project, which covers the cost of funding specialist roundthe-clock care for 24 hours at the hospice. Mr Serfontein, managing director of The Hanro Group, one of the region s largest commercial property companies, is a Pro Chancellor and Deputy Chair of Northumbria University and a board member of NE1, Newcastle s business improvement company. Mr Serfontein said: Through Pay for a Day, individual people, couples - like Rachael and I - groups or businesses can fund 24 hours of care at this fantastic hospice. We chose 18 December because it is exactly a week before Christmas, and is a very fitting time to think of people for whom time is limited, and their families and loved ones. It is a privilege to be able to do this. To know you are helping to sustain the vital care and outstanding levels of support the hospice provides is a very good feeling. People don t come to Marie Curie to die; they come to live. To enable the fantastic team to help these people and their families, just for one day in that quest, is a great thing to be able to do. 8
