The National Three Peaks Challenge involves climbing the three highest peaks of Scotland, England and Wales, within 24 hours.
Ben Nevis is the tallest mountain in Scotland, Scafell Pike the tallest in England and Snowdon the tallest in Wales.
The total walking distance is 23 miles (37km) and the total ascent is 3064 metres (10,052ft). The total driving distance is 462 miles.
The driving is a challenge in itself, and I would like to thank the drivers in advance for making this trip possible.
On Friday 27th May 2022, a team will set out for Ben Nevis. They will be paying for the trip themselves, and all money raised will go to charity. All contributions will be gratefully received.
