In our opinion, the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge showcases some of the most stunning scenery in the country. Set within the breathtaking Yorkshire Dales National Park, the three peaks—Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough—sit at the heart of an area celebrated for its outstanding natural beauty and scientific interest. Even on a wet and windy winter’s day, the Yorkshire Three Peaks provide a truly memorable and spectacular challenge.
The challenge is a circular route covering 23.5 miles, typically completed in 11–13 hours. Along the way, you’ll conquer the three most iconic summits in the Dales, each offering its own unique views and character.
A detailed itinerary will be sent to all registered participants ahead of the event, containing everything you need to prepare for the weekend. We’ll also set up a WhatsApp group before the trip so everyone can connect, arrange car shares, and start getting to know each other before the adventure begins!
