Equipment for the Yorkshire Three Peaks
Although physically easier than the National Three Peaks and requiring much less
planning, the Yorkshire Three Peaks should not be undertaken without appropriate
preparation. A modified National Three Peaks Challenge equipment list is included
below, although not all would see some equipment as necessary for a walk such as
this.
As long as the challenge is attempted at a suitable time of year, daylight is not
a problem. It is sensible to take a first aid kit, as a simple blister could ruin
a well organised challenge, potentially loosing your sponsorship money.
To carry in a small hydration backpack, containing around 4 litres of water
