Join us on an unforgettable adventure as we trek through the stunning desert landscape of Wadi Rum in Jordan, all in support of the ABF The Soldiers' Charity which provides lifelong support to soldiers, former soldiers, and their families.

The home of several Bedouin tribes, the vast Wadi Rum is most famous for its association with British Army Officer T. E. Lawrence, who passed through several times during the Arab Revolt of 1917–18.  In the 1980s shots of Wadi Rum in the 1962 film ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ were responsible for kick-starting Jordan’s tourist industry and introducing travellers to this spectacular place.

The trek will give an opportunity to immerse you in a world of military-like banter and foster an unparalleled sense of teamwork. As you traverse the rugged terrain and overcome obstacles, you'll forge bonds with your fellow trekkers and experience the unique camaraderie that comes with facing challenges together. The demanding nature of the trek will give you an insight into military desert exercises and push you to your limits, but with the support and encouragement of your team, you'll emerge stronger and more resilient than ever before.

So, if you're looking for an adventure that will test your mettle and leave you with unforgettable memories, look no further than our Soldiers’ Charity trek to Wadi Rum.
