3 Day 3 Peaks
29 Aug - 1 Sept 2013
Ben Nevis
Scafell Pike
Snowdon
A challenging trek to conquer the UK's highest peaks.
The 3 Day 3 Peaks Challenge is an attempt to climb the three highest peaks in the UK over three days, one each day, whilst taking in the magnificent scenery these peaks have to offer.
These peaks are Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon. We complete them in that order.
We travel to Fort William on the Thursday, starting with Ben Nevis on the Friday morning, climb Scafell Pike on Saturday and finish at Snowdon in Wales on Sunday.
Even though this is a more relaxed timescale than the 3 Peaks Challenge, this is a tiring event and people participating should have the necessary fitness. We aim to complete each of the mountains within 6-8 hours; however, this will depend upon the speed of the group.
The course is guided by experienced mountain leaders and there is a transport vehicle with separate driver with you throughout the challenge.
