"Amazing event as ever Ben. This is our second year as a company engaging Ben from Project Active to look after us. This time in the Brecon Beacons for a team-building hiking day. It was a great weekend, topped off with a truly memorable video of our event. We love working with Ben; he is a consummate professional who makes these events fun and inclusive. - Thanks again. I highly recommend Project Active. Ed Creasey |
"Project Active Norway 2024 - This trip gets 5 stars from me in all areas and is an absolute must-do. A stunning part of the world that should be on everyone’s bucket list, and from the moment I left my front door everything was taken care of, the organisation from start to finish was faultless and I can honestly say there is not a single aspect of this trip that could of been improved on. If you're going anywhere, make it kayaking and hiking the fjords of Norway with Project Active—you will not be disappointed!" Jake Bassi |
"The Yorkshire Three Peaks 2024 event was brilliantly organised, and the communications information was helpful and informative. There was ample opportunity to ask questions and resolve any queries. At the event, Ben was fantastic. His experience and knowledge really shows. He deals with any issues head-on and finds a way to get things done. His guidance and encouragement saw the whole group enjoy and achieve success in the challenge. It was a great experience. Thank you." Alex Cattaway |

Don't be afraid to take on a new challenge – you might surprise yourself with what you're capable of and discover the real YOU.
Going on an adventure can bring new experiences, broaden your horizons, and create lasting memories. It can be a fun and exciting way to break out of your daily routine and try something new. Challenging yourself can help you grow and improve as a person. When you push yourself out of your comfort zone, you develop new skills and gain confidence in your abilities. This can lead to personal and professional growth and greater self-awareness and fulfilment. Additionally, Whether hiking through the mountains, paddling along the river or cycling on an old, forgotten route, there is something truly exhilarating about the unknown alongside good people. Going on an adventure can be a truly transformative experience. It's an opportunity to pursue a specific goal, overcome obstacles, and learn valuable life lessons. |

Our Annual Event! Our 19th time of doing this (Hopefully 20th as well). SPECIAL EDITION - To celebrate the fact this will be my 19 & 20th time of doing this, I want to do it twice in 2 days. The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge takes in the peaks of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough, usually in this order, and in under 12 hours. These peaks form part of the Pennine range, and encircle the head of the valley of the River Ribble, in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. To complete this route is to undertake one of the great outdoor challenges of the UK. It will be a tough day, but worth it for that feeling of satisfaction upon completion. The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge includes:
We start and finish in the sleepy village of Horton-in-Ribblesdale, from here we can observe much of the route that lies waiting for discovery.
The Double: A Story in Two Acts....
The Classic Journey: A Timeless Adventure (single event) If the double challenge feels too audacious, join me for the tried-and-true single-day experience.

Join us for an unforgettable adventure, a pilgrimage to the summit of Snowdon, Wales' highest peak, to witness the breathtaking spectacle of sunrise.
This isn't just a hike; it's a journey into the heart of the mountains, a communion with the dawn. Imagine, if you will, standing at the summit, the world still hushed and wrapped in the pre-dawn stillness. The air is crisp, invigorating, a whisper of the night giving way to the promise of a new day. You've earned this moment, each step taken under the starlight bringing you closer to this ethereal experience. Then, it begins. A soft glow on the horizon, a delicate blush that spreads across the sky, transforming the dark canvas into a masterpiece of light. The first rays of the sun, like liquid gold, begin to spill over the peaks, painting the rugged landscape in hues of rose, amber, and vibrant pink. The mountains, once shrouded in shadow, are now revealed in all their majestic glory, a symphony of rock and light. You're not just watching a sunrise; you're witnessing the birth of a new day, a moment of profound beauty and tranquillity. You'll leave with more than just photos; you'll leave with a sense of accomplishment, a renewed appreciation for the natural world, and a memory that will forever hold the magic of a Snowdon sunrise. DIFFICULTY: Moderate The hike is long and often steep, which some may find a challenge.
DURATION: 7 hours minimum TIMINGS:

The Dragons Back walk starts in the small village of Pengenffordd within the Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog) National Park. It boasts fantastic views of the surrounding countryside and the beautiful Black Mountains.
This route includes the highest point of the Black Mountains, Waun Fach, which translates from Welsh as the small moor. Meandering over the ups and downs of the ‘Dragons Back’, the 360 views are simply breathtaking. It helps take your mind off the incline you will need to climb to conquer the back of this sleeping dragon.
