Starting from the event base in Glenridding, your team will tackle a 34km cycle. You’ll pass the famous Aira Force Waterfall, skirt the southern edge of Little Mell Fell, and then travel down the entire length of the Western Shore of Ullswater Lake back to Glenridding, ready for the paddle.
Give your legs a rest on a 3km course on the pristine waters of Ullswater Lake. Teams of two will use two-person sit-on-top kayaks, while teams of four will use two connected open canoes rafted together for stability. Teamwork makes the dream work on this phase!
Change into your hiking gear and get ready to climb England’s second-highest peak, the magnificent Helvellyn. From Glenridding, head to Greenside Mines, the ‘base camp’ of Helvellyn. You’ll climb to the summit via the White Side and Lower Man of the mountain, tackling a 17km round trip on a marshalled and signposted route.
Celebrate your achievement with fellow team members and participants with a delicious complimentary BBQ.
Each participant will receive an eco-friendly event t-shirt.
Should you wish to book a hired bike, we will provide a link for you to organise this and the bike will be delivered to the event hub. This will be on a first come first serve basis.
