Three Peaks Challenge

Take On The Infamous Three Peaks Challenge And Support Young People In Need.

Join us for an unforgettable adventure as you conquer three of the UK’s most iconic peaks in 24 hours, all while raising vital funds to help end youth homelessness across the West Midlands.

With options for both individuals, groups and corporates, are you ready to take on the ultimate test of endurance?

What is the Three Peaks Challenge?

The National Three Peaks Challenge takes you on a journey to scale the highest peaks in Scotland, England, and Wales:

The peaks are tackled in the following order:

Ben Nevis (1,345m)

Scafell Pike (978m)

Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) (1,085m)

That’s over 23 miles of hiking and 3,000m of total ascent—all in just 24 hours!

You will travel to Fort William on the day before, where you’ll enjoy an overnight stay. You will then start with Ben Nevis the next morning, then climb Scafell Pike through the night, and finish with Snowdon in the early hours of the next day.

Who Can Take Part?

Whether you’re an individual looking for your next adventure, a corporate team seeking a unique bonding experience, or a group of friends eager to make a difference, this challenge is for you!

Participants must have a reasonable level of fitness and be prepared for long hours of walking, steep climbs, and varied weather conditions.

Both open and closed events are available. Speak to the team to find out more about the two options.
