3 Peaks Challenge : Fri Jan 27, 2012 11:19 am  

Hi - thinking of doing this in the summer to raise money for my Nephew

Has anybody done this?

I have read that the best time to start is 5pm at Ben Nevis and then finish 5pm the next day at Snowdon

I did the Ben last year and as I reached the bottom at around half 2 there was a Three Peaks Challenge group just starting out, so I guess mid to late afternoon is the best time for Ben Nevis. Good luck

Its a bloody horrible thing to do.
It ends up being a driving marathon.

The Yorkshire 3 peaks is a much more enjoyable experience.
