Are you ready to conquer Britain’s highest peak at 4,409 feet (1343m) on our Ben Nevis Take on the Challenge weekend?
Ben Nevis, the ‘Mountain of Heaven’ is located in the heart of the Nevis Range in the Western Highlands. On a clear day the view from the peak is one of the most breathtaking sights in Scotland and will you remember it for the rest of your days, especially after the challenge of the hike.
We will travel from Belfast on the Friday morning, via Ferry and minibus to Fort William to start the climb on Saturday morning. We will take the so called ‘tourist’s path’, an unworthy title as it detracts from the challenge and strenuous nature of this climb.
Dates: Friday 13th – Sunday 15th May 2011
Cost: £240 per person
Includes travel to Ben Nevis from Belfast, 2 nights’ accommodation and guided walk to the summit. Challengers can also make their own travel arrangements – contact us to make arrangements.
Who is this trip suitable for?
As with all our Take on the Challenge events, a good level of fitness is required. You will be trekking for 6 – 8 hours over rocky and steep terrain. The climb is considerable and it is almost always cold on the summit. This challenge should not be underestimated but it is a moderate challenge which is achievable by most people with training. Advice on training will be provided at time of registration.
This trip can also be used as a Fundraising Event.
What is the food like?
To keep the cost as low as possible you will be responsible for your own meals and drinks throughout this trip.
How can I pay?
A deposit of £50 is required at the time of booking and the balance is due before the start of May. Payment plans can be arranged by Direct Debit. Bookings made after 1st May 2011 must be paid in full at the time of booking.
Will I be safe?
Most definitely! We have a proven safety record and are always focused on the physical and emotional well being of the people in our care.
Am I insured?
Our Insurance Policy automatically provides cover for all activities undertaken as part of this trip. However, it is an essential condition of joining this trip that you have a valid travel insurance policy, not only to cover the cost of medical treatment, but also to protect the value of your holiday in the event of cancellation.
