This is a brand new event to our calendar uniquely created for Marie Curie Cancer Care.
We challenge you to scale five of the Lake District's highest mountains in one day including the highest mountain in England, Scafell Pike as you hike 11.5 miles and ascend 1450m to be rewarded with the area's stunning scenery. The event is ideal for those wanting a more advanced mountain challenge than offered by our other UK treks and requires experience of mountain and/or hill walking. All monies raised will help to fund free specialist nursing care to terminally people in the comfort of their own homes.
This course caters for a range of fitness levels.
Elite
Complete the course in 3.5 - 5 hours, jog the downhill sections, walk fast on the flat sections and moderately fast uphill.
Fast
Complete the course in 5 - 7 hours, walk at a continuous pace up and down hill and take time to stop occasionally to enjoy the views.
Moderate
Complete the course in 7+ hours, walk steadily but stop fairly regularly on the uphill sections, stop on summits for pictures and food.
The event is open to anyone 14 yrs and upwards and each participant will receive a complimentary mountain challenge t-shirt on registering.
All monies raised will help to fund free specialist nursing care to terminally people in the comfort of their own homes.
