Three Peaks Challenge | 24 miles, 3 peaks, in under 12 hours. Can I do it? 三十八公里，三座峰，十二小時內。我能不能成功？

The Three Peaks Challenge in England’s northern county of Yorkshire (英國約克郡三峰遠足挑戰) is one of the UK’s ultimate hiking tests and one that I’ve been wanting to try for many years. So on my recent trip back to England I decided to give it a go.

Hike info:
I parked at Chapel-le-Dale and walked anticlockwise scaling Ingleborough, Pen-y-ghent and then Whernside.
But there are several options on where to start from.

Transport info:
Driving is the most convenient transport option, but if you don’t have your own vehicle then the Settle-Carlisle Railway is the next best option.
There are stations at Horton-in Ribblesdale and Ribblehead which lie directly on the trail.

There is a range of accommodation options in the area including the campsite where I stayed in nearby Ingleton.

You are a young jock! If I were you I couldn't do it.

[@ngedwin6174]

24miles under 12 hours is very fast pace. I walked from Kovan to Ikea Tampines and back, which is around 16km, that took me about 6 hours, and I could barely continue any further. (For those who think distance travelled can be multiply in linear, you can't)

[@EaglesFS-ds9tm]

跟台灣山很不一樣,較為平緩無樹林遮擋,風大視野遼闊,不走步道走直線也不會迷路👍👍

[@eugenetan72]

That "Weather Forecasting Stone" sign (13:27) cracked me up! Made my day, Richard! Sending warm (actually, hot and humid 🤣) regards from Singapore... 😊

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@paulcurr4815]

Well done mate, I often walk and run on the grass, to save the old leg bones from damage. Nice scenery even with the mist. See you next week. Over and out👍😁😁

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks 👍

[@mystupidx]

極為廣闊的視野，非常舒服的環境，與台灣完全不一樣的山景，很棒！

[@CYHo-PG]

Thank you for the interesting drone views of the limestone hills! We loved to hike in the Yorkshire Dales as international students in the 1990s. Revisited Malham Cove in Dec 2015.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yup. It's a great place

[@meillao1571]

I also liked to hike in the moor when visiting this area. It's a nice memory.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yes. For sure!

[@bodomphantom]

That forecasting stone sign is cute. lol

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yes, it was

[@廖海淵]

很美的風景，而且還能看到一些古建築，別有趣味！

[@korkor279]

Morning Richard, what a wonderful journey of rolling hills and dry stone walls, in quintessential James Herriot country. Followed by a lunch of hearty pub sandwich, washed down with a pint of local brew. What else could a man asked for???

[@benblyu]

nice view

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

It sure is

[@陳雀貞]

很平緩的路，很空曠的視野。🍵🍵🍵🙂🙂🙂🙂🤗

[@AmbientWalking]

Congrats! Well done! Always an inspiration for me to walk even more!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks

[@patce8094]

Good effort

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks

[@kaihendry]

Your shoes are not what I expected!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yeah. Forgot my boots, but was lucky with the weather

[@oasist5969]

Congratulations! It was a great hike.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yes it was!

[@infinity_wsl]

Thank you for yr effort. Very rarely we have somebody who can show us the differences between the continents.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

You're welcome

[@evil505]

It is an interesting marathon-like hiking!

[@sheepmrchampion]

很喜歡你拍英國爬山健行系列，雖然山跟山的距離很遠，但沿途的風景很棒～

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

謝謝

[@vinnieh1824]

好漂亮的地方

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

沒錯

[@azure0920]

Nice video. Maybe a pair of proper hiking shoes than New Balance suits better for the challenge. Also a question occurs to me that why are these passages/trails are gated? Are they prively owned or for what purpose?

[@toshiolin999]

👍真的不容易，而你做到了!令人敬佩!!!👍👍👍

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

謝謝

[@phuang3]

What an achievement. Congrats!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks

[@TheSkskitey]

Very good Richard , what a tough walk up and down dales . The only challenge i could do is a 3 piece feed from KFC , i'm done with long and tedious hikes being 69 but i can ride that far on my E-bike . I hope all is well in Taiwan with the China problems when you get back if your not already back :-)

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks. I've been back a couple of weeks already. Just the usual sabre rattling, just a bit louder this time.

[@JM-gz1ej]

Wow, Incredible hike with incredible scenery. Just curious, when did you go to sleep in order to at the trail head at 4:45am ?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Around 10.30pm

[@cwmobilecm]

Missing update to video introduction. Europe hikelopedia or something. Cudos to you to walk 11hrs and that distance. Please keep making hiking videos wherever you are.

[@ganwb79]

What background music is embedded in the video?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

It's called "Drifting at 432 Hz" by Unicorn Heads. From the KZbin audio library.

[@percussimo]

好美的風景, 請問 Richard 現在還在英國嗎? 如果有時間可以介紹這些遍布鄉間的矮牆嗎?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

謝謝。我已經回來了。矮牆是英國農地到處都有

[@percussimo]

@@AsiaHikelopedia 謝謝

[@tomcat1251]

g day ! Richard , just curious to know ur age!😀

[@xuejuansu8502]

Which one is older, yorkshire's rocks or taiwanese rocks and mountains and hills? liked and thank you.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

I have no idea. Sorry!

[@kwfong3466]

I noticed the thin sole of your pair of shoes. I would find it difficult to use them for walking on a rocky path.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yeah. I forgot my boots that day, so I had to walk in my running shoes. I was lucky it had been dry weather!

[@王采虹]

英國山勢平坦，臺灣山勢陡峭，樹木林立的多！

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

很大的差別！

[@alicepear]

Why there are so many stone walls and gates on British hiking trails?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑

[@alicepear]

@@AsiaHikelopedia Interesting!

[@sdqsdq6274]

too barren for me , any forest area ?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

A few small ones but nothing major in that area

[@lancelot0201]

我相信絕對超級熱,因為沒有樹. 英國的山坡地都沒樹,是因為長不出樹呢?還是因為是牧場,所以樹都砍掉了?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

應該“是因為是牧場,所以樹都砍掉”。但我不確定

[@koutlapoert7910]

這片土地要是讓台灣人來利用， 絕對蓋一堆民宿 露營區 跟種 高山蔬菜 水果。

[@lancelot0201]

恐怕台灣人在這樣的氣候下,也會跟英國人種一樣的作物

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

已經有很多民宿，露營區。但我沒有拍到

[@3266julien]

請問那些柵欄有什麼作用?是單純的界線標示嗎? 還是私人領地的圍欄?

[@aybeornot7127]

This way so beautiful. Taiwan's months more dangers,more three, less view.and more dogs look like could bite you.

[@jason791111]

很特別的景色~ 但英國人是不是不太愛爬山? 都沒看到路人

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

喜歡。但我爬的是工作天

[@MrJohnston123]

Not quite equal to Grace Tseng's exploits but good enough .

[@links7622]

There is no one around. Where are all the people?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Haha. English countryside is like that!

[@elchapo8461]

In the English pubs drinking.

[@oldsambo]

Too hot for the locals to walk?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

@@oldsambo It was mid-week. There was a few people walking.

[@milton1644]

還是征服女朋友的雙峰比較輕鬆，啊 我沒有女朋友...

[@yuehlileo]

少有樹林的荒原景色, 只能牧牛羊, 這在地狹人稠的台灣人看來, 真是浪費土地…😅
