The 3 Lakes Challenge - Open Canoes or Sea Kayaks

 

 

Our 3 Lakes Challenges are fantastic team events with a number of different options to choose from. You may want to just paddle the 3 lakes and be transported between each leg by road transport or should you have the interest and feel up to it you may condsider biking between the lakes giving a more sustained challenge requiring a highly level of fitness. Alternativley we have designed a 2 day event which combines a number of different outdoor activity elements including the paddling of the 3 Lakes but also with the ascent of Striding Edge and Helvellyn, mountain bike orienteering course and an abseil. This option is tough but one which is an amazing journey. The choices are endless.....
