Loading ...Australian adventurer Mark Scholinz is attempting to solo hike the 3,000 km length of the Great Wall of China, from Jiayuguan to Shanhaiguan. The hike is expected to take 6 months. Regular posts, photos, and video, will be posted on his website, www.greatwalltrek.info. Along the way he'll be raising money for communities in the developing world. You can donate to Oxfam through his site.
Scholinz has already passed the 1,000 km mark after starting the walk in March at the western end of the Ming Dynasty section of the Great Wall. He plans to finish his hike through desert, mountain ranges, and farmland in August. Mark is being tracked by GPS as well, so you can follow along with his position on the site as well.
Good idea for an adventure Mark, and a great cause too!
