There is a very easy path. There are also much harder routes apparently

My cousins husband does it every year plus a mountain in Ireland, some event where they do them all in 48 hours. They run up and down them. Does that help :lol:

You obviously need to take more food and water than you need in case you get stuck up there. Waterproofs and warm clothes as the weather can turn very quickly. It's just about being sensible really and being prepared should the worst happen!

I've not done those 3 but I've done stuff thats of a similar height. You can get a train up Snowden BTW :look:

In usual fashion I have opened my mouth without thinking and have agreed to climb the 3 peaks before the year is over lol.

Any of you climbed Ben Nevis? Any tips?

I have to climb Snowden, Nevis and Scaffel Pike.

What sort of shoes and equipment would you recommend?

I have never done anything like this before so all advice is welcome :lol:
