The Three Peaks Challenge involves climbing the three highest peaks in England, Wales and Scotland. It is a common mis-statement that the Three Peaks are the three highest in Britain. Over one hundred peaks in Scotland are higher than Scafell Pike, and 56 are higher than Snowdon!
The Three Peaks Challenge is our most popular adventure. For four years now we have planned and co-ordinated these events for groups of individuals, corporate teams and major charities. To date, our events have raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for worthy causes. We are extremely proud of our success in helping teams achieve their aims - whether that be the challenge in 24 hours, or simply getting to the finish.
The Mountain and Glen Challenge is a tough test by anyone's standards! Taking in the three highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales, the challenge is to complete all three within 24 hours. Starting in Fort William, the first challenge is the brooding mass of Ben Nevis. On completion we head directly to the Lake District for phase two, Scafell Pike. Again, on completion we head off for our final leg, up the steep slopes of Snowdon in Wales. Sleeping and eating are attempted in the vehicle between mountains!
This is a great team-building event for corporate teams, and a great fundraiser for charities. We can put together a bespoke Challenge to meet your requirements or, see Adventures page for our "open bus" dates when you can join other adventure-minded individuals.

If the Three Peaks Challenge is just a little too ambitious, how about the same itinerary over a four day period? You will climb the three highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales at a more leisurely rate of one per day and have the luxury of a shower and warm bed each night!This adventure is available to individuals, couples and groups.
