Active Mountaineering レビュー 

If you’re considering taking on the National Three Peaks Challenge in under 24 hours, make sure you do your training. This is not a casual stroll with some nice views. It’s a relentless test of physical endurance and mental resilience. Training will prepare your body, but nothing can truly prepare you for the psychological battle that starts much earlier than you expect. Having just completed it myself, I now have a huge appreciation for just how tough this challenge is, and a newfound suspicion about how many people have confidently claimed a sub-24-hour finish in the past!

Of course, none of this would have been possible without Chris. If you’re looking for a guide who will gently reassure you, wrap you in positivity and tell you you’re doing brilliantly every five minutes, Chris probably isn’t the one for you. If you slow the group down, you can expect a full-on scalding rather than a gentle nudge. But every word comes from a place of wanting the best for you and ensuring the whole team gets over the finish line within the time limit. He is equal parts motivating and infuriating, which is exactly what you need.

The challenge was brutal, rewarding, and unforgettable. Our group is now unquestionably trauma bonded for life. Nothing builds friendships quite like exhaustion, questioning all life choices, and being collectively shouted at to keep moving at 4am whilst trying to stomach a very warm Percy Pig. If you genuinely want to push yourself and give yourself the best possible chance of completing the challenge in under 24 hours, choose Chris. You may question him on the mountain, but you’ll beyond thankful with him at the finish line.

I just completed the National 3 Peaks Challenge with Active Mountaineering, and I can't recommend them highly enough. Despite some significant traffic delays between the mountains, we completed the challenge in less than 24 hours thanks to Chris' outstanding leadership, motivation, and organisation. Whether you're an experienced hiker or taking on your first big mountain challenge, Active Mountaineering provides the support, encouragement, and expertise to help you achieve your goal. If you're aiming to complete the National 3 Peaks Challenge in under 24 hours, I genuinely don't think there's a better company to do it with.

If you’re looking for someone who’s going to wrap you in cotton wool, Active Mountaineering probably isn’t for you.

If you’re looking for someone who’ll get you to the finish line, even when you’ve convinced yourself you can’t, book with Chris.

I completed the National Three Peaks Challenge with Active Mountaineering, and it was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Physically, mentally and emotionally, I was pushed further than I ever thought possible.

Chris is… brutal. 😂 He’ll shout at you, swear at you, probably annoy you at some point and definitely push you to your absolute breaking point. But here’s the thing… every single thing he does has a purpose. He reads people unbelievably well and knows exactly what each person needs to keep moving. Sometimes that’s encouragement, sometimes it’s tough love, and sometimes it’s making you just angry enough to prove him wrong!

As someone who’d recently been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, there were moments where I genuinely questioned whether I’d make it. Chris never once let me believe I couldn’t. He saw something in me long before I saw it in myself, and because of that I completed the challenge within the 24 hours.

The whole weekend was brilliantly organised, the driving, timings and logistics were seamless, and despite how hard he pushes you, safety is always his priority. You never feel like you’re in the hands of someone inexperienced. You feel like you’re with someone who’s done this so many times that he knows exactly how to get the best out of people.

What surprised me most wasn’t just that I climbed three mountains. It was what I learnt about myself along the way.

So thank you, Active Mountaineering, but an even bigger thank you to Chris. You didn’t just guide us up three mountains, you helped me find a version of myself that I’d forgotten existed.

I’ll never forget it 💕

Just completed the National 3 Peaks with Chris over the weekend.

First thing you notice with him is he sets realistic expectations. He tells you from the outset, it's a hard challenge, he's not here to stroke your ego or molly-coddle you around.

He is there to get you from the base of Ben Nevis to the car par park at the foot of Snowdon via Scafell Pike within 24 hours. The full shabang.

To do this is it a hard pace, lots of ups and downs, physically and mentally tough. This isn't a bimble. It's fast, it's hard and it's gritty.

But Chris is the man for the job. His experience shows through, he motivates when required, and he kicks your arse when required. But he does what he says. He'll get you over the line in 24 hours.

I thoroughly enjoyed the challenge, the teamwork, the camaraderie and the sense of achievement when you clock in a very hard but very real sub-24 time.

If you want a gentle walk and tell everyone you done National 3 Peaks regardless of your 24 hour+ time then go with another company.

If you want to do the challenge properly and take away all it teaches about yourself, then go with Active Mountaineering.

We did the National Three Peaks Challenge with Chris on the 11th July, and I can honestly say that it was just a fantastic experience.

Everything was flawlessly organised. Chris is knowledgeable and encouraging. Expect to be shouted at, occassionaly sworn at but he gets it done. We completed our challenge in 23 hours 51 minutes! We passed every other company on the mountains.

Dont underestimate the challenge, it is brutal. You need to train, you will be tested both physically and mentally but Chris will support you every step of the way. He wont let you give up!

So if you want to complete a genuine 24 hour 3 peaks challenge, go with Chris! There will be plenty of laughs, maybe a few tears but also memories that will last a lifetime! Its an unforgettable experience! Thank you Chris!!

If you’re looking for the ultimate challenge, then the 3 peaks is for you.
If your looking for a greater challenge & completeing it in under 24hrs, then Chris is your man…
No nonsense, always delivers.
Amazing experience!!
Give him a shout

Chris is a no nonsense type of guy, who’s sole aim is to get you over that finish line in under 24 hours and he has the knowledge and expertise to achieve this as long as you buy into his ethos. I would definitely recommend.

No other company will get you past the finish line in 24hrs. Such a well organised experience, and an unforgettable challenge. Top man, Chris; he'll do everything in his power for you to succeed.

Couple of friends decided to do this challenge and I decided to join them ,
What an amazing experience with a fantastic guide in Chris - if you want to complete this 24 hour challenge , then do it with an active mountaineering - his schedule / planning and motivation is absolutely A1.

What a fantastic challenge, one of the most challenging things I have ever taken on. I would highly recommend Chris as your Guide to push you through this experience. There will be highs and low but Chris is there along with the other team members on the trek to push you through it. The high from completing the 24 hour challenge is amazing and one I would recommend to all. I can’t wait to sign up to another trek with Chris at Active mountaineering. Top bloke and fantastic challenge.

Absolutely brilliant experience
Chris is a top bloke and a master at what he does
He got us through the 24 hour 3 peaks challenge as promised
If you want to complete this challenge then chris is your man
Thanks again chris

Highly recommend this company, everything was planned to the second. No room for error and the guide was amazing plus we had a legend driver. Definitely not an easy challenge but our group did it and I’m so proud of my no f**king faffing medal.

When my friend suggested this challenge I was really excited but had no idea what to expect as I’ve never really done group hikes before .
We all had the best experience with Chris and his team , absolute professionals. The way Chris planned out every little detail is phenomenal, he thinks of everything.
If you want to do this as a challenge book with Chris and you will have much more fun and no faffing !

A friend suggested this challenge and my wife and I joined her on it. Due to the size of the group being only 4 of us in total, Chris undertook the drive himself and worked with local guides on the mountains. From the first moment it was apparent how well informed and experienced Chris was.

Unfortunately I was (unknown to me before starting) coming down with a chest infection. Chris attempted to motivate me until it was apparent I wouldn’t be able to keep up with the pace to complete the challenge, but allowed me to do what I could with strict instructions and regular communication while he steered the rest of the party to complete within the 24 hour window with time to spare.

Chris provides all the motivation, training guides and nutrition advice you’ll need to get through this. He knows what he’s doing - stick to the plan, listen to what he says and you will complete this challenge in 24 hours. First class and would absolutely recommend.

If you are wanting to do the National 3 Peaks Challenge in a genuine 24 hours, Active Mountaineering is who to go with.
Chris and his team has everything planned down to the minute, making sure you can succeed.
From training plans and equipment advice well in advance. Each hike was explained thoroughly.
Everything is so well organised, I couldn’t recommend Active Mountaineering anymore highly.
I will never forget this experience of a lifetime, completing the challenge in 23hours 53 mins.

Me done the three peak challenge with chris and decided to dod the mt toubkal trek and it was really good from start to finish he had a good team of people from the guide up the mountain to the people looking after us at aroumd the village we stayed at the bottom of the mountain. He booked us a really nice celebration meal at the dar essay resteraunt and also booked us a camel ride with quads in the desert. So this trip is definitely worth the bank for your buck.

No faffing.
Chris and he's crew were amazing . No faffing. Did the challenge were great. I would recommend it yo anyone. I didn't know i had it in me yo complete a challenge this difficult, especially Ben Nevis and was thinking of giving up but Chris had other thoughts. Definitely no faffing which made me realise how much I can do and without Chris and his team it wouldn't have been possible. I would highly recommend active mountaineering to anyone because the organisation of the whole challenge were perfect and timely well presented and prepared

I recently completed the 3 Peaks Challenge with Active Mountaineering and it was an experience of a lifetime. Everything was so well organised, right down to the finest details, which made the whole challenge run smoothly from start to finish.

Chris was absolutely fantastic – knowledgeable, encouraging, and made us feel completely safe in his hands, even when we were being pushed right to our limits. What stood out was how he managed to combine the tough physical challenge with moments of laughter, which kept the whole group motivated and positive.

I couldn’t recommend Active Mountaineering more highly. If you’re looking for a challenge that’s both tough and unforgettable, with expert guidance every step of the way, this is it!

#nof#@kingfaffing

What a weekend, National 3 Peaks in 24 hrs!!!! Would not have been possible without Chris and his team. The whole challenge was down to a tee! Absolutely no FAFFING!!!! Highly recommend if ur thinking on taking on this challenge!!!

Absolutely no Faffing !!! This is the company you want, look no further for a genuine 24hrs 3 peaks challange and an achievement worth having. You will be pushed to you're absolute limit. Chris is an amazing guide without him im positive id have failed to the first hurdle ( Nevis) but he knew how to push me at each point until I crossed the line in 23hrs 39mins. Expect to be shouted at Expect colourful language Expect to be broken and built back up again all in 24hrs. The only company ii would ever use or recommend.
