Conservation in Costa Rica

Donation protected
Hello to you!
I'm thrilled to share my upcoming adventures! In the summer of 2025, I'm embarking on an
extraordinary four-week expedition to Costa Rica's lush rainforests. Surrounded by monkeys
and toucans, I will work alongside conservationists to protect the environment and support local
communities through inspiring projects.
Additionally, I'll pursue my PADI Open Water Dive Qualification to explore the vibrant marine life
in Costa Rica's tropical waters—a perfect way to celebrate turning 16!
Before this exciting trip, I want to honour my late Grandpa, who sadly passed away on 18th March this year. My Grandpa was an adventurer who conquered Dartmoor's 'Ten Tors' as a teenager.
Inspired by his spirit, my dad and I will undertake a meaningful 3-day trek across Dartmoor in June and will also be visiting 10 Tors!
Navigating our way by compass and map, we will start from Postbridge, where Grandpa lived
(and where he met my Grandma). We will then embark on a 30-mile, 3-day trek that will lead us
through breathtaking landscapes and historical sites.
We will finish at Haytor Rocks, a place with deep family connections, which overlooks
Widecombe-In-the-Moor, a place where my Great-Grandparents used to live!
Trek Details:
Day 1: From Postbridge, we'll pass through the ancient clapper bridge, hike to Bellever Tor (1) and
Laughter Tor (2), and then Fenworthy Tor (3) before we find camp near Grey Wethers stone circles
(spooky)
Day 2: We'll explore Sittaford Tor (4) and the medieval ruins near Hound Tor (5) before finishing
at Holwell Tor (6). We'll then camp near the scenic village of Widecombe-in-the-Moor.
Day 3: The final leg includes a sunrise at Rippon Tor (7), followed by a hike through Pil Tor (8) and
Top Tor (9). We then end our trek at Haytor Rocks (10) to enjoy a well-earned rest with stunning
views of the moor.
This journey isn't just a physical challenge; it's a passage through time, celebrating nature and
my family heritage in one of Britain's most beloved and beautiful national parks.
I'm asking for your support through donations or well wishes to make this trek memorable and to
help me reach my fundraising target. This will help me achieve my wish of supporting
conservation and local community projects in Costa Rica in 2025.
Any amount is greatly appreciated, and it will also motivate me as I attempt to follow in my
Grandfather's footsteps and continue his Ten Tor legacy!
Thank you for being part of my adventure!
With love and Thanks,
Eva xxxxxxxx
