Take on one of the UK’s toughest adventures with the 24 Peaks Trek – an unforgettable weekend challenge through the stunning Lake District!

We’ll be trekking for 12 hours each day, covering approximately 28 miles and tackle around 12,500ft of ascent, reaching some of the region’s highest peaks.

This monster trek will push both your stamina and determination to the limit. But with every step, you’ll be surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of one of the UK’s most scenic National Parks – a landscape of incredible mountains and valleys that makes the effort truly worthwhile.

If you’ve already conquered the classic 3 Peaks, this is the perfect next step. The 24 Peaks is a serious step up – but with incredible support and the motivation of the group, we’ll take on this epic challenge together and come out stronger on the other side!
