"Overwhelming experience"

"An overwhelming experience, one of the biggest achievements of my life" - Ben Nevis Trek participant 2018

Summit the UK's highest point

Your journey to the summit begins at dawn, where the rising sun will bring 'The Ben' into view, revealing your task ahead. As you take in your surroundings all the way to the summit, this ancient volcano may reveal a party piece as snow can be found at the top, all year round. 

As you arrive back to basecamp, our team will be there to celebrate your success with you, while handing out your finisher's medal!
