Wharfedale 3 Peaks Challenge

The Wharfedale 3 Peaks Challenge, organized by the Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue Association, is an annual charity event held in Kettlewell Village, Yorkshire Dales. Now in its 12th year, it offers three routes: a 17-mile Three Peaks route covering Birks/Firth Fell, Buckden Pike, and Great Whernside; a 13.5-mile Two Peaks route; and a 4.5-mile family valley walk along the River Wharfe and Paradise Walk. The challenge suits walkers and runners of good fitness, featuring scenic views over Upper Wharfedale.

Proceeds support the local mountain rescue team. Amenities include water stations, refreshments, and commemorative medals for peak route participants. Dogs are only allowed on the valley walk. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
