H4H challenges are some of the most inspirational and life-affirming experiences you will ever have the chance to undertake. They offer a chance to see breathtaking beauty and remarkable cultural diversity, while raising an incredible amount for our wounded heroes. Intense training and dedication have life changing rewards; imagine the stunning views when you reach the highest point in Africa at Mount Kilimanjaro, or the sense of tranquillity in the Saharan desert, one of the most peaceful and vast places on Earth. Alternatively try the sense of achievement when you cross the finish line at Dunkirk, after cycling 350 miles across France on the Big Battlefield Bike Ride.
