Epic vistas, dramatic boulder fields, deep valleys, and beautiful lakes – summiting Scafell Pike is a challenge that has something for everyone. There’s a real sense of desolation and wildness from the summit of Scafell that will leave you feeling humbled.

This is an open event (not just CHSF supporters) so you’ll walk with friendly fellow challengers – some will be fundraising, others just completing the challenge to push themselves, get fit, or tick something of a bucket list. You will walk alongside an experienced guide from Large Outdoors.
