A brand new event for 2012..!

We've been trying to find an intermediate mountain challenge event somewhere between the Yorkshire Three Peaks - and national Three Peaks Challenges, in terms of fitness, endurance, team size, and of course - cost. We are all too aware that entry fees, accommodation, and fuel costs are becoming very restrictive for people hoping to attempt the national challenge over the next couple of years.

So - we've created the Scottish Three Peaks Challenge.

Open to teams of 4 (1 driver, three climbers) this challenge has a Full Course and Short Course option. Teams will attempt rotes around Merrick, Ben Lomond and Ben Nevis, with a total drive of 200 miles. Entry fees £160 - £200 per team.

For full details, please visit the Scottish Three Peaks Challenge webpage on this website.

Event News

According to the latest weather reports, it looks like the weekend may be hot and sunny..! This means dehydration can be a problem for those not carrying or drinking enough fluids.

We do have limited water available at some safety checkpoints, but teams should remember they are expected to be fully self-sufficient on our challenge events.

However, it's still prudent to carry some cash, and perhaps make use of the Inns, pubs, and catering van en-route..!

 
Hello All,

This news post is in regard to email information updates (or lack of) after you have signed up...

Lots of teams have been telling us they receive initial notification that they have been accepted into an event - then nothing further.

This is because all further email information updates are sent from '[email protected]' which seems to be deemed as junk or spam by many email clients. Please ensure you add '[email protected]' to your safe senders list...!

Stay safe,

Richie..



 
Hello Everyone..!

Due to the amount of enquiries we recieve regarding our Open Challenge Event Series, I thought it would be easier to put a 'Latest News' page here to keep you all informed.

Please keep checking this page as it will be regularly updated with news, information, and answers to common questions - and perhaps the odd quiz with prizes too ;-)

Stay safe, Richie..
