Day 1 - Sunday
Departing the accommodation, you will head straight out to the hills, heading north to the first peak - Skiddaw! Continuing on to Great Calva and Blencathra, before heading down to the valley bottom and a night in a bunkhouse (pub dinner)

Day 2 – Monday
After breakfast, you will head out and begin the jounrey south, towards the plateau of Helvellyn. Summiting many peaks en route, you will reach a lake at the end of the day where you will pitch tents for a rest and wild camp under the stars.

Day 3 - Tuesday
After packing away the tents, you will now head towards the centre of The Lake District.

This is a tough day! - It starts by heading straight up the side of the mountain behind the pub (it is steep!) - then along the ridges, cols and peaks of the neighbouring mountains.

The final day of the adventure will see you return to Keswick, via a few more summits, of course and the comfort of our hostel, before celebratory drinks in town.
