I’ve seen many great fundraisers on here – so figured another good cause might get some help from us TZ-ers.
On the weekend of Saturday 27th April my brother & a team of 15 colleagues will take on the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge.
The Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge is a 24 mile circuit taking in the 3 peaks of Pen-Y-Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough.
It involves just over 5,000 feet of ascent and it is intended to be completed within 12 hours.
This is quite a tough challenge but with the right training beforehand can be achieved in the allotted time.
Some more info here :
· The Three Peaks - take in all three summits in one goThe classic challenge walk - 24 miles, three peaks, 12 hours to complete the circuit. This route description will help guide you.
But go prepared with an Ordnance Survey map and know how to use it.
· Ingleborough walkA route to the summit of Ingleborough from Clapham taking in some fantastic limestone scenery
- the caves of Ingleborough, Gaping Gill and the impressive Trow Gill.
· Pen-y-ghent walkMany people's first peak. A classic circuit from Horton-in-Ribblesdale with good paths,
great scenery and the impressive Hunt and Hull Pots on the way down.
· Whernside walkStarting from the impressive Ribblehead Viaduct this route takes you to the highest point in Yorkshire - Whernside.
On a clear day there are great views out to the Howgills, the Lake District and Morecambe Bay.
