About the Event
Take the classic Yorkshire Three Peaks route into the night for an exhilarating and unforgettable adventure. Starting in Horton‑in‑Ribblesdale at sunset, you’ll trek approximately 24 miles (39 km) through the rolling Yorkshire Dales under the stars, summiting Pen‑y‑Ghent (694 m), Whernside (736 m), and Ingleborough (723 m) – aiming to finish just as the sun rises on your final peak.
With over 1,500 m of ascent, this is not your average walk – it’s a serious endurance event. You’ll follow well-trodden trails, rocky ridges, and steep climbs, all guided by experienced mountain leaders. Two support points along the way offer rest, hydration, and encouragement as you press through the night and into dawn.
The sense of achievement crossing the finish line while the world wakes up around you is a memory you’ll never forget.
