26 Peaks Challenge - Walking Holiday
26 highest peaks and 26 of the best views in a fantastic week of hillwalking
7 Nights, 26 Peaks, 5 Days of Walking
Wow! what an achievement to summit the islands 26 highest peaks in a fantastic week of hillwalking and 26 of the best views of this amazing walker’s paradise.
Overview
The route, expertly put together by our island guides, will take us over 60 miles and 3000m of ascent as we summit 26 of the islands highest and most notable peaks.
The lineal route will be continuous, and each day will cover a manageable selection of the peaks, starting from Cronk ny Arrey Laa in the Southwest of the island with its breath-taking cliff top views of the southern tip and Calf of Man to the finishing peak of Slieau Ruy high above the Laxey valley on the East coast.
The terrain will be a mixture of mostly open Moorland walking, footpaths, plantations, woodland, greenways, and occasional quiet country road sections. The route has been carefully selected to avoid steep climbs but obviously summiting 26 peaks will involve several ups and downs!! But we get excited about this walking holiday as it provides our clients with a fabulous all round walking experience of the island amongst a real achievement of summiting the 26 highest peaks.
Our base for the week will be Douglas, the Islands capital, and each day our private transfer will drop us off every morning and be waiting for us at the conclusion of our days walk.
The maximum group size will be 16 and all our guides are professionally qualified, accredited and follow industry guidelines for safe and enjoyable guided walking in the uplands and hills of the island, and will inform you of the islands geology whilst pointing out interesting flora and spotting the islands varied upland wildlife.
We rate this holiday route as moderate plus and would recommend previous hill walking experience and a confidence of your fitness to achieve maximum enjoyment of the days route. Your guide will support you every step of the way and a rest day during the week will allow you to recharge your batteries and enjoy the islands many attractions.
