About this event
Considered one of Britain's toughest outdoor challenges, the National 3 Peaks Challenge takes in the dizzy heights of Ben Nevis (1,344m), Scafell Pike (978m) and Snowdon (1,085m).
Over two days, you will trek around 26 miles and ascend to a total height of almost 3,000m. This is a serious and tough challenge that requires a good level of fitness, as well as plenty of grit and determination. Ultimately, however, your hard work will be rewarded with spectacular views and a huge sense of achievement.
This is a fully supported challenge, with mountain leaders encouraging you every step of the way!
