Description

Ben Nevis

Join us for an incredible opportunity to take a guided walk to the roof of Scotland – Ben Nevis (1345m). This is a unique chance to join a like-minded group, get active, and enjoy the expansive views across Scotland from the highest mountain in the UK.

Our team will meet you outside the Glen Nevis Visitor Centre in Fort William. You will receive a brief on the event before we begin this amazing experience. The walk will take you through stunning landscapes, including lush green valleys and rugged mountain terrain, offering plenty of photo opportunities along the way.

Once complete you can celebrate your achievements with your very own Ben Nevis medal.

Upon signing up, you’ll receive a comprehensive PDF packed with all the event details, training plans, and essential information you need to prepare for this incredible adventure. This guide ensures you’re fully equipped and ready to make the most of your Ben Nevis experience.

This event will appeal to everyone from seasoned adventurers to Sunday hikers. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to summit the highest mountain in the UK while being fully guided by our team of qualified mountain leaders. The walk is suitable for all experience levels; however, you will need to be reasonably fit to ensure your own enjoyment and that of the group, as the trip will take around 9 hours.

This guided walk to Ben Nevis is not just about reaching the summit; it’s about enjoying the journey, the camaraderie, and the stunning natural beauty of Scotland. We look forward to sharing this adventure with you!

Your Charity:

FAQ’S:

WHAT WILL I RECEIVE ONCE I REGISTER?IS THERE AN AGE LIMIT?CAN I CHOOSE A CHARITY NOT LISTED?CAN I FUNDRAISE FOR TWO CHARITIES?WHEN WILL I HEAR FROM MY CHARITY?
You will receive a receipt via email, along with a comprehensive PDF containing information such as meeting times, fitness plans, kit list, etc. This is normally instant so please check your junk folder and allow up to 24 hours to arrive. If you do not receive this, please contact [email protected]
Yes if you are registering to take on the challenge solo then you must be 18 years or older. Under 18s are welcome but must be accompanied by a parent/guardian for the duration of the event. Please let our team know of anyone under the age of 18 looking to register prior to sign up.

Under 18s taking part cannot sign themselves up – they must be signed up by someone over 18.

If there is a charity you would like to fundraise for that does not appear on our list, we ask that you speak with your preferred Charity about what you would like to do, and ask them to register with us via our short contact form which can be found on our website page www.eliteadventures.co.uk/charityregistration

Once they’ve registered with us, it will take about 5-7 working days to add them onto our registration forms, and you can then sign up to your chosen challenge in aid of them.

Alternatively you can Self Fund your place and fundraise for them independently with no fundraising commitment.

Please note: the above is relevant for Charity Sponsorship or Mixed Funding places only. If you are entering as a Self Funder you can fundraise for any charity of your choice (only if you want to) & we do not need to be informed.

If you are entering on a Charity Sponsorship or Mixed Funding place then NO – you must select one prime charity for your fundraising, and they must be registered with us. This is because your charity will be paying for a portion of your place on the event (out of the fundraising that you generate). If you wish to also fundraise for another charity, you can do so on your own terms but only as long as you reach the minimum fundraising target your first/prime charity.

If you join as a Self Funder however, you have complete flexibility on who you fundraise for – with no targets or deadlines, and no cost to those charities.

If you have chosen to fundraise for a charity, we will pass your details over to them and you can expect to hear from them within 14 days. If for some reason you do not hear from your charity after this time, please contact them directly or email [email protected]
