UK 3 Peaks Challenge – July 2022

Friday 15 July 2022 - Sunday 17 July 2022

Summit the 3 highest mountains in England, Scotland and Wales.

From the rugged beauty of Glen Nevis Valley to the forests and estuaries of the stunning Snowdonia National Park, join us for one almighty trekking challenge as you take on the UK’s giants on this classic 3 Peaks Challenge!

You’ll experience striking mountain ranges and discover stunning scenery as you watch the sunset over Mickledore and climb Scafell Pike at night. The 3 peaks challenge includes Ben Nevis (1,344m), Scafell Pike (978m) and Mount Snowdon (1,085m) and you’ll be aiming to summit all three in a total trekking time of 15 hours or less, over the course of 2 days.

During your challenge you’ll climb around 3,050 meters and walk approx. 40km in aid of local hospice care, so grit and determination are essential to completing this fast-paced challenge. It’s no wonder this challenge is the most highly regarded trekking challenge in the UK!
