The Derbyshire Three Peaks Challenge is an attempt to climb the highest peaks in Derbyshire in 10 hours.

Thee Derbyshire Three Peaks are Kinder Scout, Bleaklow Head and Higher Shelf Stones all connected by a 20.75 mile circular walk. We normally complete them in that order, but it is possible to go other ways.

We meet in Hayfield early on Saturday morning for a kit check and briefing, starting 9:00am aiming to complete the challenge in the early evening in time for dinner!
2025 Price £55 per person
This is a tough event and people participating should have the necessary fitness and also be properly equipped.
The course is guided by qualified mountain leaders and first aiders.
We regularly run this adventure at the weekend, Saturday or Sunday, however if you would like to do this at any other time, including midweek, then please contact us.
