Ben Nevis Challenge

7-9 September 2012

Conquer Britain's highest peak at 4,409 feet (1343m) on our Ben Nevis challenge weekend. Ben Nevis is located in the heart of the Nevis Range in the Western Highlands.

Breathtaking

On a clear day the view from the peak is one of the most breathtaking sights in Scotland. The views from the summit are awe-inspiring, the most immediate being to the east, over Aonach Mor and Aonach Beag beyond. To the south beyond Glen Nevis lies the rocky ridge of the Mamores, and still further the mystical mountains of Glencoe. The experience of standing on the roof of Britain will provide the memory of a lifetime.

To take part in this challenge you pay a registration fee of £75 to the event organisers, Charity Trek, and raise a minimum £200 sponsorship for the work of Alzheimer Scotland.
