The National Three Peaks Challenge.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia-: The National Three Peaks Challenge is a mountain endurance challenge in Great Britain in which participants attempt to climb the highest peaks of each of the island's three countries - Snowdon Wales, Ben Nevis Scotland, Scafell Pike England. Whilst the challenge has no official rules or time restrictions, many participants try and complete it within 24 hours, or more leisurely over a weekend, using motorised transport to travel between the mountains. Some participants choose to start and finish the challenge at sea level, whilst the majority simply start and end at the foot of the first and last mountains. More Info Click Here
