Chilterns 3 Peaks

Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care is encouraging local people to put their best foot forward and sign up for the return of its annual Chilterns 3 Peaks challenge event this September.

Taking place on Sunday, 10 September 2023, the walking event offers three alternative routes, which all take in some of the Chilterns’ most spectacular peaks.

All three routes begin at Princes Risborough School with 6.5, 10and 18–mile options available. The longest of the routes tackles all three peaks – Whiteleaf Cross, Coombe Hill and Ivinghoe Beacon –before a bus takes walkers back to the start point. Transport for the day has kindly been donated by Arriva which is providing both vehicles and drivers to support the event.

This year’s event is supported by headline sponsor, Origin Doorsand Windows, as well as R. Benson which is supporting this event for the second year.

Laura Elliot, Head of Supporter Fundraising at Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care, says:

“The Chilterns 3 Peaks is a long-established event in the area that has been well supported by local people over the years. Every penny raised by the event is used to provide patient care and as we have extended the reach of our services through our recent merger, we’re aiming to make it even more successful than ever before – so we can reach more people in our local area.

“For this we really need the support of our local communities. Whether you have a personal link to the cause or want to take on a physical challenge, this event is perfect for you. Each year we see walkers taking part with their friends, family, colleagues or even their four-legged friends! So why not get a group together, sign up and play your part in raising funds to support care for local people with a life-limiting illness?”

Tickets are available now and cost £15 for adults over 16, and £7.50 for children (5-16), with under five-year-olds walking for free. A group ticket is available, priced at £40 for two adults and two children.
