Trip Overview
Classic three peaks challenge through the stunning Yorkshire Dales landscape. The Yorkshire 3 Peaks is one of the UK's most popular challenge walks, taking in Pen-y-ghent (694m), Whernside (736m), and Ingleborough (723m) in a single day. Starting from the village of Horton-in-Ribblesdale, this circular route crosses some of the finest limestone scenery in Britain. The challenge is as much about endurance as elevation — it's a long day on your feet with significant total ascent. Perfect for charity groups and corporate challenges.
Who is this for?
A challenging but achievable day trek for fit walkers. Prior hill walking experience is recommended. If you can walk 6+ hours on hilly terrain, you should be able to complete this with proper training.

"This was my first time cycling with Adventure Cafe; first time riding from London to Paris and my first time riding this sort of distance over 3 days. Lots of preparation had gone into this from AC prior to departing London."
