The TR Youth Not-Quite-Three Peak Challenge!

This is the TR Youths' Not-Quite-Three Peak Challenge!

An action packed weekend of driving, hiking and probably drinking! The plan is to hike three peaks in the UK over three days; Scafell Pike, Snowdon and Kinder Scout (we decided Scotland was a little far)! With enjoyable driving, wonderful views everywhere and hopefully marvellous weather!

This is on the last Bank Holiday in May. Only the first campsite is completely confirmed; I need to get a better idea numbers before I can confirm the other two nights - so I really hope you can make it, and let me know ASAP if you can!
If you can only make 1 of 2 of the days, then again, please let me know! We'd still love you to come along!

Cost: Fuel, Campsites (approx. £10-£15 a night), Food and Drink!

Full agenda:

Friday

Drive from home to the Lake District. Meet and camp at The Oakhead Caravan Park (some of you will know this from the Lakes Tour).

Address: Ayside, Grange-over-Sands LA11 6JA

Note: From the campsite the pub is a 30 min walk. This may be a good night to skip the pub, bring a few beers to the campsite and get an early night!
