Lake District Eight Peaks Challenge 2025
Take on one of the Lake District's toughest challenges and be rewarded with epic panoramic views from the highest peaks in England.
Are you ready to join #TeamRetinaUK and give back to our ground-breaking research projects and vital support services, by taking on a charity hike this year?
Embark on a journey across eight of the Lake District’s most formidable peaks. This adventure includes a trek to the summit of Scafell Pike, England’s highest peak, with full support along this stunning route in the heart of the Lakes.
This one-day challenge is no easy feat, with eight peaks to conquer. Get ready for an exhausting yet invigorating trek through the rugged and dramatic landscapes of the Lake District. Covering 15 miles, you’ll tackle some of England’s most challenging peaks, including the highest – Scafell Pike. The group will ascend over 3,000 feet (900m), crossing crags and moorlands past the Langdale Pikes towards Scafell Pike, before returning over the final two summits of the day.
You’ll get full support along the way by our team of experienced mountain leaders who will ensure you get the very best of this amazing experience.
