Cheltenham's Three Peaks Challenge

About

The annual Cheltenham's Three Peaks Challenge takes place in early June. Dates to be confirmed for 2025. 

The 22 mile walk which starts at their Charity 'HQ' in Lansdown Parade, provides you with the opportunity to take part in an exhausting but exhilarating adventure through Gloucestershire's most picturesque landscapes whilst tackling the three tallest peaks in the county; Crickley, Leckhampton and Cleeve hill!

This event raises vital funds for the Aim Up charity, and provides their team with the opportunity to meet new people and share their charity story.

Cheltenham's Three Peaks Challenge started in 2018, with just 40 walkers (mostly members of staff) tackling a route which covered Crickley, Leckhampton and Cleeve Hills. Following their positive feedback, the charity decided to open the challenge up to others, by introducing a self-guided option in 2019. Since then, the event has grown and grown. Once again the team have spent the last few months working hard to ensure their 2024 event is enjoyed by all walkers.
