Route

This is a 38.6km circular route in the Yorkshire Dales National Park summiting Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough, part of the Pennine range in the beautiful north of England.

 

 

 

 

We are offering a 12-hour option (which is how the challenge is typically done) or the option to spread the route over 2 days. 

Each group will be led by qualified Mountain Leaders, so you can join regardless of your navigational ability. 

 

Accommodation

 

The campsite we are staying at is Philpin Farm, which is conveniently located en route. We want to ask participants to make the booking and make the payment themselves directly with the campsite. Please make it clear that you are with Adventure Plus as they are aware we are using the campsite as a base for this challenge. 

 

We will be staying here for 2 nights on 30th and 31st May. The cost is £10 per person per night. Emailing is the best way to book.
