Lake District Challenges
Lake District Challenges provide our clients with a range of team building and charity fundraising events based in the beautiful surroundings of the Lake District National Park.
We offer a comprehensive planning service for private and corporate groups producing customized events in accordance with the specific requirements of our customers.
In contrast to the National Three Peaks Challenge which involves a 10/14 hours split for road transport/walking over a 24 hour period; our Lake District events provide a serious alternative where you can have a break away in the Lakes and still do your challenge.
Our Lake District Challenges offer an environmentally sensible option for those groups who have either done the National 3 Peaks Challenge or who are sensitive to the environmental impact on local communities and the adverse media coverage of this increasingly popular event and resultant high volume of traffic on these mountains.
We believe that the best way to tackle the environmental issue is by adopting a small group policy and limiting group size on all of our mountain challenge events.
We are geared towards the smaller to intermediate group size and our average group is typically around 8-24 participants. However, we can also accommodate larger numbers with split teams and alternative routing solutions to avoid the environmental issues.
The Lake District is easily accessible and is especially suited to groups who are randomly distributed as well as single location groups with excellent rail link to Penrith which is only 25 minutes drive from our base in Keswick in the Northern Lakes. We offer our customers a highly personal service and a high success rate providing quality all-inclusive packages for all of our team building and charity fundraising events.

Have fun in winter snow...
Why not think about a winter challenge after the christmas break - winter snow with excellent visibility is a unique experience and even on a sunny winter's day the Lakeland Fells are much quieter than the summer months during peak walking season.
