St Walburge's Three Peaks Challenge

 

 
Ingleborough

 
3 great peaks. 
24 miles. 
5,200 feet of ascent. 
12 hours.

 
 
 
This is the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge. It takes in the peaks of Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough. These hills form part of the Pennines, at the top of the valley of the River Ribble in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Miles downstream is the reason a group of young people are undertaking this considerable challenge: St. Walburge’s Shrine Church in Preston, Lancashire. Their aim is to raise funds for the restoration of this iconic, Grade 1 listed landmark.
