Three peaks, three days, memories to last a lifetime.
It’s time to lace up your walking boots and take on the UK’s iconic Three Peaks challenge for sick children across the South West.
You’ll climb around 22 miles as you soak up the rugged sights of Glen Nevis Valley, Snowdonia’s forests, and tackle Scafell Pike under a star-lit sky. Plus, you’ll be treated to breathtaking views from the top of each peak.

The route:
Day one
On day one you’ll meet your fellow trekkers in glorious Glasgow. Transport will be arranged to take you to Fort William in the stunning Highlands of Scotland. You’ll have a chance to get to know one another over a delicious group meal and get some much-needed kip before you embark on your epic trek.
Day two
You’ll enjoy an early breakfast, fueling you up for your first (and highest) peak, Ben Nevis (1345m)! You’ll take on the ‘tourist path’ specifically designed in a zig-zag pattern to make your climb that bit easier. Taking just 3.5 hours, it’s the perfect warm-up challenge…
Once you’ve finished soaking up the sights of the Scottish Highlands, it’s straight back to the bus which will take you to Lake District, home to the next peak: Scafell Pike (978m).
After a spot of dinner, you’ll witness the sun set over the Lake District as you head towards your next summit. Next, you’ll jump straight back on the bus to head towards the last (but by no means least) peak, Snowdon.
Day three
Snowdon is your final peak, so you’ll be facing an early start at 6am! You’ll take the Pyg track to ascend Wales’ highest mountain at 1,085m, and the views should not disappoint.
Following your descent, you’ll be treated to a well-deserved celebratory meal where you can reminisce with new-found friends about what you’ve just achieved. You’ll then be transferred to Chester train station where you can make your way back home for some much-needed sleep.
