At Mountain Journeys we offer a unique range of events to test your abilities in the mountain environment. From single day to multi day ‘mega trips’ we have something for everyone. Our challenge events require minimal travel once at departure point. This gives you more time on the mountain, more time enjoying the outdoors & more time enjoying the challenge. What are you waiting for, give us a call and let's make it happen.

Lakeland 3000s

From only £125pp (based on 3 participants):
The Lake District contains some of the most beautiful scenery in England. It has hundreds of fells which create a vast terrain of rugged mountains. There are 4 fells which exceed the 3000ft contour. These can be ascended during the course of a weekend, meaning you have then climbed the 4 highest peaks in England, quite an achievement.

The mountains in order of height are:
  1. Scafell Pike, 3210ft / 978 metres
  2. Scafell, 3164ft / 964 metres
  3. Helvellyn, 3118ft / 950 metres
  4. Skiddaw, 3054ft / 931 metres


We usually begin with a day on the Scafell range. Although Scafell & Scafell Pike are very close to each other, cliffs bar easy access between the two, so this makes for a big day out with lots of ascent and descent.
By comparison, day 2 should feel easier! Skiddaw and Helvellyn are both climbed via well maintained paths that are never overly steep.

This is a good way to enjoy and get to know the Lake District and give yourself a challenge to work towards.

From £50pp (based on 4 participants):
The 8 Peaks Challenge starts out from the beautiful Langdale valley and sets a course to Scafell Pike. Along the way we summit Bowfell and Esk Pike before ticking off the Scafell range.

Rossett Pike - 651m
Allan crags - 785m
Ill crag - 935m
Broad crag - 934m
Scafell Pike - 977m
Great End - 910m
Esk Pike - 885m
Bowfell - 902m

After a big day in the mountains, the Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel will prove to be a welcome sight. Here you can enjoy food and drink in wonderful surroundings.
From £50pp (based on 4 participants):
To complete this route is to undertake one of the great outdoor challenges in the UK. It will be a tough day, but worth it for that feeling of satisfaction. The scenery is dramatic and ever changing, wildlife abounds as do carpets of flowers encouraged by the nutrient rich soils of the Limestone pavement, which in itself is an incredible sight to behold.
We start and finish in the sleepy village of Horton-in-Ribblesdale. From here we can observe much of the route that awaits our discovery.
