A 3 peaks challenge with a more relaxed theme spread over three days to climb the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales, these being:

A more relaxed alternative to the 24 Hour Challenge.

We begin our attempt in Scotland, meeting at 9am on a Saturday morning, departing for the first leg of the challenge, Ben Nevis. Climbing from Glen Nevis to the summit of Ben Nevis, we will be aiming to be up and down Ben Nevis around mid afternoon so that we can begin our journey south to Cumbria.

Hot food and drinks will be ready for us as we arrive back at the mini bus where we will then depart for our journey to The Lake District.

On Sunday morning we will depart from Wasdale or Seathwaite to climb Scafell Pike, using a slightly more interesting route than the standard three peaks challenge up and down we will aim to be back down again by mid afternoon, returning again for hot food and drinks at Wasdale or Seathwaite before departing for the trip to Snowdonia.

Mondays walk will begin at Pen Y Pass where we will walk a circular route to the highest point in Wales before returning to Pen Y Pass to complete the 3 peaks for a well earned meal and refreshment stop.

After the challenge we will be able to drop clients off at several locations, including accommodation, airports and railway stations (Including Manchester) en route back to the Lakes. Accommodation during the three days is not included in this price, however we will be more than happy to arrange this for you should you require this, We would reccommend staying in Fort William on the Friday night, either Keswick or Cockermouth on the Saturday night and if you would like to stay over in wales on the Monday night then Llanberris, otherwise we will be able to drop anyone off at stations and Airports en route back to Cumbria. Pick ups can be arranged on the Friday evening at any point between Cockermouth and Fort William including Glasgow and Carlisle.

Included in the price:


Transport throughout the event.
All food during the challenge.
A qualified guide on each leg with a ratio of 1:8 maximum.
A driver throughout the challenge.
A CD of pictures within one week of the walk.
