About the Challenge
Take on one of the most iconic ridge walks in the Peak District – the Edale Skyline. This epic circular route is a true test of endurance, covering 20 miles of rugged trails, sweeping ridgelines, and dramatic moorland scenery.
Starting and finishing near the beautiful village of Edale, this challenge will see you summit some of the area’s most legendary high points, including Ringing Roger, Lose Hill, Mam Tor, Brown Knoll, and Kinder Scout. With jaw-dropping views in every direction, the Edale Skyline is as rewarding as it is demanding.
Make no mistake – this is a tough full-day challenge, with long climbs, exposed terrain, and over 1,200m of elevation gain. A good level of fitness and hillwalking experience is essential, and we strongly recommend training in the lead-up to the event.
You’ll be fully supported throughout the day by our experienced mountain leaders, who will guide, motivate, and keep you safe as you tackle this legendary route.
Whether you’re chasing a new goal, fundraising for a cause, or just up for an unforgettable day in the hills, the Edale Skyline promises challenge, camaraderie, and a huge sense of achievement.
