Taking in some of the most celebrated views and coastline of Ibiza, the Ibiza Walking Association invites island residents and visitors alike to join them for a spectacular charity walking event.
When and Where?
Starting at 'The Egg' in Sant Antoni on Saturday 31st May 2014, walkers from all over the island (and the world) will join the Ibiza Walking Association for a fundraising event to raise money for Ibiza based charities.
Who can get involved?
The event is accessible for everyone, even families with babies in buggies - and every single euro raised will go directly to a charity.
The IWA (Ibiza Walking Association) has chosen an easy route that has several 'stop-off' points so everyone can choose a distance that is suitable for their fitness level. The first few kilometres are buggy friendly, and even the first 10km or 15km is suitable for kids. And when everyone gets to Cala Conta there will be a big picnic where everyone will get together on the beach and have lunch - and possibly a cooling swim.
Everyone is welcome to take part - no matter what age or fitness.
The idea is to stop walking when you get tired but for those who like a challenge, the full route is about 30km. After the start at 'The Egg' in San Antonio, the route takes the flat and easy coastline via Cala de Bou, Cala Bassa and Cala Conta. Then things get a little more serious, and the walkers will continue along the coast to Cala Tarida after which they head inland and over hills to Sant Agusti. After stopping for a brief snack at Bar Can Berri, there is a steep climb over the hill to Sant Josep.
100% to charity
Every single euro that is raised in sponsorship will go to a number of different Ibiza based charities - or you can choose just one of them for your friends to donate to.
The online sponsorship at www.ibizawalkingassociation.com has been specially set up for the event. Simply follow the links to The Long Walk and then click 'Take Part'. You will need to pay the €10 registration fee and fill in a short form - that's it, you're ready to start raising money. You will have your own 'Participant Page' where you can see messages from people who have sponsored you and how much you have raised so far.
Donating is also simple. Your friends can access your 'Donate Page' and pay money directly into the charities Paypal account.
