Following last year’s success, we are back at Tittesworth Visitor Centre again. But new for this year we have an exciting additional new event at the location – Family Fun Day with a trail around the reservoir. The Mountain Challenge Trek will again be setting off from Tittesworth Visitor Centre, walkers self-navigate across the amazing scenery with stunning views of the water and surrounding areas. You need to be able to read maps and have proper hiking shoes to survive the day! However, you will enjoy spectacular views and exhilarating inclines before descending back towards Leek for refreshments and hot food at Tittesworth Visitor Centre.
In the morning Teams set off from Tittesworth Visitor Centre (after a kit check) with their start time recorded officially. Participants should prepare for a long day; the weather can be unpredictable, and teammates will need to work together.
There is a formal ‘Kit List’ for both individuals and teams, which is required to be able to participate in the event. Teams need to have a minimum of 4 people and a maximum of 6 people.
Income raised from this event will go towards a project in Bangladesh that funds climate resilient water, sanitation and hygiene being supported by the Severn Trent WaterAid committee. Thank you for your support.
There are three routes to choose from. Routes will be updated on the Severn Trent Mountain Challenge | Charity trek | WaterAid UK shortly.
There are multiple options for how you join the challenge too. You can choose to register:
- with your own team
- as part of a guided group walk
More about the challenge, rules and kit list can be found on the website.
Event news, photos and results will be shared on the STMC Facebook page: Facebook
