The 10,000m Challenge is an outdoor adventure and charity fundraising initiative like no other. The goal for each registered challenger is to visit 10,000 vertical metres worth of High Point locations during the calendar year* (1st January to 31st December).
The challenge is also linked to our Highpointeer of the Year awards competition, the Counties League, and the Provinces League. Members of Associated Walking Clubs can also represent their club in the Highpointeering Club of the Year awards competition. Please note that all total figures in this challenge are related to location elevations and do not reflect the actual amount of ascent undertaken by challengers. * From 2019, this year-long challenge will have flexible start and finish dates. This will allow each individual challenger to choose his / her own year-long challenge period. Each challenger will also be required to download the Peakhunter app to their smartphone, create a personal profile, and log their High Point visits using the app. High Point visits made after 31st December 2018 will only count towards the challenge if they have been logged using the Peakhunter smartphone app. Visits not logged using the app from 1st January 2019 will not qualify. Peakhunter is our official logging partner. |
