What to expect

Expect a tough but seriously rewarding day in the mountains as we link Blencathra and Skiddaw in one epic adventure. With steep climbs, rugged terrain, plenty of ascent and miles of spectacular Lakeland scenery, this is a challenge that will test your legs and endurance from start to finish.

This isn't your average Sunday stroll! We'll be spending a full day in the hills, tackling two iconic mountains and taking in some incredible views along the way. You'll need a good level of fitness and experience of long mountain days, but if you're up for a proper challenge, this is one hell of a day out.
