Story
We are a team of five hardy indiviuals pitching ourselves against the highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales.
The 3 peaks are:
- Ben Nevis 1,344 metres (4,409 ft)
- Scafell Pike 978 m (3,209 ft)
- Snowdon 1,085 metres (3,560 ft)
The aim of the 3 peaks challenge is to climb all three peaks within a 24 hour period, including the travel time between the peaks. We aim to start climbing Ben Nevis at 5pm on Thursday 4th of June and finish the descent from Snowdon before 5pm on Friday 5th of June.

Whilst we see this as a personal challenge for each of us, we thought it would be a shame not to take the opportunity to raise money for charity at the same time, so we hope you will see fit to give some money to Help for Heroes, which we think is a very worthy cause.
