Ben Nevis

At 1,345 metres, Ben Nevis is the tallest mountain in the UK, towering above the Scottish Highlands near Fort William. The challenge starts almost at sea level, giving you a serious ascent right from the off.

Fun fact: Ben Nevis is the collapsed dome of an ancient volcano that stopped erupting over 350 million years ago.

Snowdon

Also known as Yr Wyddfa in Welsh, Snowdon reaches 1,085 metres, making it the highest mountain in Wales. Multiple well-marked routes lead to the summit, with breath-taking views if the weather cooperates — a rewarding final climb on the challenge.

Fun fact: Legend says Snowdon is the burial place of Rhitta Gawr, a giant defeated by King Arthur.

Scafell Pike

England’s highest peak stands at 978 metres, set in the heart of the Lake District. Expect steep, rocky ground and unpredictable weather, especially if climbing at night during a 24-hour challenge.

Fun fact: Scafell Pike was donated to the National Trust in 1919 as a war memorial to honour those lost in WWI.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide mountain guides?

No, Summit Club offers a self-guided experience. You or your group are responsible for navigating each peak, while we handle transport, accommodation, and coordination.

Our packages include transport between all three mountains, overnight accommodation where applicable, logistical coordination and a finishers t-shirt.

Essential Kit Lists for UK Mountain Challenges

The right gear can make or break your challenge. Our detailed kit lists cover everything you need for summer and winter mountain events across the UK — from the Three Peaks to 24-hour endurance hikes.

We’ve built each list based on mountain rescue recommendations and real experience on the trail. Whether you’re preparing for unpredictable weather, long hours on your feet, or overnight climbs, these lists help you pack smart and stay safe.

Choose the season, check the kit, and tackle your summit fully prepared.

Is food included?

We provide light refreshments, such as water, hot drinks, and snacks, but you will need to bring or arrange your own main meals.

What level of fitness do I need?

The National 3 Peaks is a demanding challenge requiring good fitness, strong legs, and confidence in mountain environments. Training beforehand is highly recommended.

Do I need any special equipment?

You’ll need standard hill-walking and mountain gear, including sturdy boots, weather-appropriate clothing, a head torch (especially for Scafell Pike at night), and a navigation map or device.

Can I book as an individual?

Yes, you can book as a solo challenger or as part of a group. Its a great way to meet fellow hikers who love a challenge.

Can I book for a corporate or charity group?

Absolutely, we regularly support corporate teams and charity events with group-friendly planning and flexible scheduling.

Is there a minimum age?

Generally, participants must be 18 or over. If you have younger participants in mind, please get in touch so we can discuss suitability.

Can I bring my dog?

Unfortunately, no - dogs are not permitted on our transport or in the accommodation we arrange.

How does the accommodation work?

We arrange comfortable accommodation, always at a minimum of 3-star B&B standard, conveniently located near each peak to help you rest and recover between climbs. All bookings are handled by us, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

Do you offer a 3-day option?

Yes, you can choose between the 24 Hour Challenge for a faster pace, or the 3 Day Challenge to spread the climbs out with more recovery time.

What vehicles do you use for transport?

We use a comfortable, reliable minibus suitable for moving groups and their kit safely between each mountain.

What happens if the weather is bad?

We will support you to adapt your challenge if conditions become unsafe, but you are responsible for mountain decision-making as this is a self-guided experience.

What happens if I can’t complete the challenge?

If you need to withdraw from the challenge, it is your responsibility to safely return to the minibus pickup point from the mountain. Once back with us, we can either keep you onboard to continue supporting the group or drop you at your accommodation or nearest train station so you can make your own way home if you wish.

When is the best time of year to do the challenge?

Late spring through early autumn generally offers the best balance of daylight, conditions, and mountain access.
