Do YOU have what it takes to join the WolfPack?

Set yourself a goal for 2014 and sign up for the WildHearts WolfTrek, an epic outdoor challenge taking place across 43ml of Highland wilderness, from Forres on the magical Moray Firth Coast all the way to monstrous Cairngorm Mountain! The WolfTrek has been named one of ‘9 Events Everyone Must Do’ by Men’s Fitness Magazine and described as ‘Epic…One of a kind’ by Men’s Health Magazine (though half of our participants are women!) The spectacular WolfTrek route was created by the WildHearts team (you won’t find it on any map) and due to the unique conservational sensitivities of the terrain it passes through can only be held on ONE weekend a year.

The WolfTrek is the only event in the UK that:
-Plunges you into Scotland’s most spectacular scenery, including remote lochs, ancient Caledonian forest, the stunning Cairngorms National Park and desolate moors where the wolves once roamed
Immerses you in Highland history, from abandoned distilleries to ancient crofts, across long forgotten clan territory
-Lures you across the mysterious moonlit Dava Moor, historic home of a medieval tyrant, the Wolf of Badenoch (Are the moorlands really haunted? You'll find out!)
-Rewards you with a roaring reception at the UK’s highest bar, where you can howl with your fellow wolves to celebrate your conquest
-Helps you battle global poverty with WildHearts by creating your own unique online fundraising page to promote your team's efforts

In teams of 3 or more you will have 24 hours to wolf down the whole challenge or you can choose to take part in a team relay, tackling a bite-sized 15 mile section of the route. Alternatively choose to take on the Midnight March, a 16 mile trek from Forres to the ghostly shores of Lochindorb
