The Seafarers UK 24 Peaks Challenge is one of the most rewarding team-building events in the UK.  The challenge is to climb 24 peaks in the Lake District, all over 2,400 feet, in 24 hours.

The course is 31 miles long and includes Scafell Pike, the highest peak in England. Over two days the teams will take in some of the most stunning countryside in Cumbria, including rivers, moorland, farms and forest. All participants will need to be physically fit – but more than that they will need determination, self-belief and team spirit to get them to the finish line!
