Three Peaks Challenge

Dates available:
02 July – 04 July 2010

• Take on three mountains in three countries
• Climb Ben Nevis as the sun sets
• As the sun rises take on Scafell Pike
• Finish your challenge on Wales’s infamous peak, Snowdon
• Aim to complete the challenge in 24 hours!

Our Three Peaks Challenge takes on the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales all within 24hours. The trek covers 40km (25 miles) and involves 2,984m of ascent and descent.

Your 24 hour challenge begins in one of Scotland’s most scenic areas, Glen Nevis Valley. From here you will climb Ben Nevis, the largest mountain in the UK standing at 1,344m. Your first peak has spectacular views as you trek while the sun sets and you continue your journey by the light of the moon (and head torches!) On descending Ben Nevis you will be driven through the night to the beautiful Lake District.

Once you arrive in the Lakes you will begin to climb the second of the Three Peaks – Scafell Pike; the highest mountain in England standing at 978m. You climb as the sunrises, giving you fantastic scenery looking down over the hills and lakes of the region.

Your final challenge takes on the highest mountain in Wales; Snowdon, standing at 1,085m. Snowdon, or Yr Wyddfa in Welsh, is a national treasure with its unique bio-diversity of plants and wildlife and is a stunning end to the last of your Three Peaks.
