The Maribios Trek / The Rio Macho Trek<br />

The Maribios Trek follows the Maribios chain of volcanoes in the north-east<br />

of Nicaragua, from Esteli to Mechapa on the Pacific Coast.<br />

The Rio Macho Trek goes from <strong>Raleigh</strong> <strong>Field</strong> <strong>Base</strong> in Turrialba to Punta Judas on<br />

the Pacific Coast, scaling two mountains en route – Cerro Dragon & Cerro Barres.<br />

‘This trek has been the single most challenging and painful thing of my<br />

life. At times I felt like giving up, but the feeling at the end of each day is<br />

amazing and definitely worth all the blisters and hard work. I’ve had the<br />

time of my life.”<br />

Holly Winser, Venturer, 18, UK<br />

“The Maribios Trek has really helped me find out my true limits. As a team we<br />

have battled intense heat and rough terrain, yet had a great laugh along the way.”<br />

Mags Cameron, Venturer, 22, UK<br />

La Caminata Maribios sigue la cadena de volcanes Maribios en el<br />

noreste de Nicaragua, desde Estelí a Mechapa en la Costa Pacífica.<br />

La Caminata de Rio Macho va desde las Oficinas Centrales de <strong>Raleigh</strong><br />

en Turrialba a Punta Judas en la Costa Pacífica, escalando dos<br />

montañas en ruta a Cerro Dragón y Cerro Barres.<br />

“Esta caminata ha sido la experiencia más retadora y dolorosa de mi<br />

vida. En veces sentí que quería renunciar, pero el sentimiento al final<br />

de cada día es increíble y definitivamente valió todas las ampollas y el<br />

arduo trabajo. He pasado una de los mejores momentos en mi vida”.<br />

Holly Winser, Venturer, 18, UK<br />

“Los Maribios me ha ayudado realmente a encontrar mis verdaderos<br />

límites. Como grupo batallamos con el intenso calor y el difícil terreno,<br />

aunque con todo nos divertimos mucho durante el camino.”<br />

Mags Cameron, Venturer, 22, UK
