Join us in taking on the epic challenge of the Yorkshire Three Peaks!

We will meet late afternoon on Friday 1st May outside the School of English where we will travel by cars and vans to Selside Outdoor Activity Centre. Transport, accommodation, breakfasts and an evening meal (except the night you arrive on and leave the trip) are included in your ticket. Details of the hut can be found here! https://sport.leeds.ac.uk/facilities/selside-outdoors-centre/. We will take on the challenge on Saturday, and have a relaxing day on Sunday before returning back to Leeds for the evening. The early May Bank Holiday on Monday means that we all get a day to recover before returning to life!

The main aim of the weekend is to get as many people around the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge as possible. ‘But what is the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge?’ I hear you ask. It's a 39km (24 mile) circular route, that takes on the peaks of Ingleborough, Pen-y-Ghent and Whernside includes 1585m (5200ft) of elevation gain, traditionally completed in 12 hours. A big one then, but it is well within our capabilities!

We want to make Weekend Trips as easy as possible for you, but due to safety, some equipment is required. A kit list can be found here https://luuhc.com/gear/weekend-trips. Please follow it! Need some inspiration for what food to pack? See the ‘Getting Outside’ FAQ section of our website at https://luuhc.com/faq#Getting-outside. For this trip you will need a sleeping bag. The club does have limited gear that members can borrow - if you’d like to borrow gear for this trip please fill out the gear form that will be sent out to ticket holders in the trip email!

Before the trip, you will receive an email with more up-to-date details.
