Route information
The first stretch of the challenge will be on the bike, you will cycle through the beautiful countryside alongside Ullswater. This will be a scenic and enjoyable 14-mile route taking you through woodlands to the village of Glenridden.
Hop off the bike and change into your hiking gear to begin the ascent of Helvellyn. You will have to ascend 3,118.7ft in total so be ready to feel the burn. Make sure to enjoy the climb and take some photos as there will be plenty of great views throughout.
After summiting the peak, head back down to the kayaking section so you can rest your legs as you paddles around a 1.5-mile route around the lake.
