The Lakeland 3000' Footer Challenge
 
 

The Lake District National Park is blessed with many breathtaking mountains with Skiddaw, Helvellyn and Scafell Pike being 3 that exceed 3000 feet in height and as such have become an attractive challenge for many groups to ascend. At 3 Challenges we have created 4 different challenge formats for ascending these Lakeland 3 Peaks over different time frames and one using mountain bikes and one requiring a night out camping! There is something for everyone but above all the challenge options are well designed and we believe that anyone can complete one of the 4 options with the correct training and preparation.

3000 Footers - Challenge Options

Option 1 - Level 'Strenuous'

A 15 hour challenge to summit Skiddaw, Helvellyn and Scafell Pike with road transportation between each mountain leg.
