A varied and popular challenge with expert guides
The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge is a one-day event and most walkers complete the route in 10-13 hours.
But this should not be taken lightly as the terrain is extremely varied involving some steep ascents and descents.
You can look forward to support from our team of highly trained mountain guides on the day. Plus, our fantastic staff and volunteers will greet you with a warm welcome as you arrive. They’ll also celebrate your success as you finish your challenge, with a medal for every trekker to wear with pride.
Reach new heights
Starting and finishing in Horton-in-Ribblesdale, which is accessible via the Settle-Carlisle Railway, this iconic challenge takes in the stunning landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales, including the magnificent Ribblehead Viaduct, a remarkable feat of Victorian railway engineering.
Your first summit comes early as you ascend 694m to the top of Pen-y-ghent. From there, you’ll continue across the Dales towards your second peak, Whernside, which at 736m is the highest of the Yorkshire Three Peaks.
In the afternoon, you’ll take on your third and final summit, Ingleborough, reaching 723m and enjoying spectacular views across the Yorkshire Dales National Park. After conquering all three peaks, you’ll make your way back to Horton-in-Ribblesdale to celebrate your achievement.
