Total Distance: 39km

Total Ascent: 1500m

1 Day Trek

Accommodation can be organised in/near Ingleton for the nights before/after the trek. We can look into hotel or hostel options, depending on your preference.

This challenge is difficulty ranked: 3.5 out of 5.

Be prepared for longer distance treks with a higher overall ascent and up to 12 hours trekking for a single day event. For multi day treks, daily durations are likely to be lower although effort will be sustained over a longer period. Longer duration long haul trek days are likely to be shorter, however, you may need to be more resilient due to less home comforts, i.e using same clothes for several days, basic facilities if staying in mountain refuges, simple food etc. Escape routes may still be well available or may be less existant for longer mountain based routes.

You will need to have good endurance for these events. You must be out regularly on long countryside walks for 5-7 hours over 13-16 miles, alongside purposeful ascent training of 300-450m. You should be keen on regular exercise, ideally with some running. Your running speed should be around 10-11 minute miling for a minimum of 3 to 5 miles. If you do not run, you should be a regular at the gym/pool/spinning class building in sessions of 1.5hr+ at a moderate to high level.
