2025 Event: Bookings open 1st January 2025 and will close on 17th March or when we reach the maximum number of teams
The training event is open only to Scouts from the age of 12. Scouts can walk with a daysack, and they also can choose a leader to walk with them. The teams must consist of a minimum of 4 persons and a maximum of 8, these numbers include any Leaders.
Changes for 2025
For 2025 we are making two changes to the Traning Event:
- Explorers can now take part in Training Event
- Joint Scout & Explorer team can take part in the Training Event as long they are of simular hiking ability.
About Training
Teams on this challenge will also need a support team to transport food, stoves & tents between campsites. Along the 36-mile route, Scouts & Explorers will be trained in navigation to help them gain their Stage 3 badge.
Before Six Summits Weekend
Participants will need to complete a series of training hikes, navigation exercises, and a number of scenario hikes. At a minimum, we ask participants to complete at least three training hikes over hilly terrain.
The Weekend
Throughout the weekend, the teams on this challenge will navigate through checkpoints, pitch their own tents and cook their own meals. This will be supported by young people’s leaders who will need to transport food, stoves & tents between campsites.
