Ready for an adventure? Join us for the Three Peaks Challenge and help support the incredible work of the Community Sports Foundation. This is your chance to conquer the UK’s most iconic mountains – all in one unforgettable weekend. Starting with Scotland’s Ben Nevis, before travelling to Scafell Pike in England’s Lake District before concluding with Mount Snowdon in Wales.
Imagine scaling stunning peaks, pushing your limits, and celebrating every step of the way with a team of like-minded adventurers. Yes, it’ll be tough, but the sense of accomplishment (and the views!) are so worth it. Plus, you’ll have plenty of support and encouragement from the Foundation team, both before and during the challenge.
And here’s the best part: every mile you trek, every peak you summit, you’ll be raising vital funds to make a difference in our community. So if you’re looking for a meaningful adventure with a big impact, this is it!
Come for the challenge, stay for the memories—and leave knowing you’ve made a real difference. Are you in?

Fundraising Incentives
Fundraising for the Foundation entitles you to a number of incentives, as follows:
The National Three Peaks is one of the most popular mountaineering challenges in the UK, conquering each of the highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales respectively. Expect breath-taking scenery and testing conditions as you tackle the rocky and steep ascents to the coveted peaks.
Walkers will stay in hotel accommodation on day one. The cost of the event is based on two people sharing a twin room. If there is anyone you’d like to share with please let us know.
Single rooms are available, subject to a supplement payment. If this is something you’d like, please let us know so we can get this booked ASAP.
Pre-Event Support
Once you’ve signed up for our Three Peaks Challenge you won’t be on your own! The team at the Foundation will be in touch regularly to help you every step of the way. From providing tips and resources to boost your fundraising efforts to sharing tailored training guidance, we’re here to ensure you feel fully prepared and supported.
We will hold an information evening in May at The Nest. The date will be communicated to all our participants nearer the time. The evening is a chance to meet our team leaders and other walkers, talk through key information, and gives you an opportunity to ask any questions you may have.
Event Support
Participants will be divided into sub-teams. Each sub-team will be guided by at least two volunteer team leaders, who will have maps, GPS and radios linking them to the other sub-teams and our support minibuses.
The minibuses will transport you between the peaks and be at each mountain’s start and finish points. The team will prepare hot/cold drinks and snacks for you and transfer your luggage along with supporting any other requests you may have.
Each walker will be provided with a challenge t-shirt. You may need to invest in kit and equipment. We recommend visiting Go Outdoors, as you will be eligible for charity discount on most purchases.
Sadly, we aren’t blessed with mountains in Norfolk, so the best training is to do mid/long distance walks. We recommend 5-to-6-hour walks, to mirror the time spent on each mountain.
We encourage our participants to go on group walks prior to the challenge to get to know each other.
We will also provide you with some training plans and walks to get you started. If you have any questions regarding this, feel free to email us, and we’ll do our very best to support you!
The Community Sports Foundation uses the power of sport to support and inspire our community. Our charitable objectives are to:
