Three Peaks Challenge - Open Bus

Print Page

Trek with us

18-19 August 2012

29-30 September 2012


Location:

Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike & Mount Snowdon

Want to climb the UK’s highest peaks, test your stamina, take in breathtaking views – and help save lives as you do so? On our hill-walking and hiking challenges, you’ll have the chance to explore some of the country’s most stunning scenery.

Looking to join a team to complete the Three Peaks Challenge this year? Why not join our open bus events? The Open Bus Three Peaks Challenge is perfect for individuals or smaller groups to join together and complete the Three Peaks Challenge.

At 1344m Ben Nevis is the UK’s highest peak and the first of our challenges. You will meet at Glen Nevis in Fort William and will commence their climb early afternoon. You will then be driven to the beautiful Lake District where our next challenge 978m Scafell Pike awaits. This peak will be ascended in the dark and completed hopefully around dawn, allowing you to see the magnificent view which surrounds you. We will then make our way to Wales and our final test, Mount Snowdon, which at 1085m will really test your endurance.

You don’t have to be a mountaineer or an expert with a compass, although you’ll need to be reasonably physically fit and have a good pair of walking boots. Under the watchful eye of our professional leaders, you’ll enjoy an unforgettable trek while helping to save more lives from leukaemia.
