The Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge Map and Guide is a comprehensive resource designed to assist participants in conquering the iconic Yorkshire 3 Peaks mountain range. This map is meticulously crafted at a scale of 25,000, ensuring intricate details and accurate representation of the terrain. To enhance readability under challenging conditions, the mapping is licensed from Ordnance Survey (OS) at a scale of 50,000 and then meticulously doubled in size. This process not only enlarges the features, text, and logos but also makes them significantly more legible, making it easier for participants to navigate the route with precision.

The Yorkshire 3 Peaks 12-Hour Challenge Route is prominently highlighted on the map, standing out against the OS background map. This special highlighting ensures that the route is easily identifiable and provides a clear visual reference for participants during the challenge. Additionally, the map includes additional details that may be useful to participants, such as the popular starting points of the Pen Y Ghent Cafe (Horton), Station Inn (Ribblehead), and the Hill Inn (Chapel-le-Dale). These points serve as convenient starting points for the arduous trek.

To further enhance the user experience, the map includes four parts of the comprehensive Challenge Guide. These sections provide detailed information and guidance for each leg of the journey, covering Horton to Pen-y-ghent, Pen-y-ghent to Whernside, Whernside to Ingleborough, and Ingleborough to Horton. Each section is accompanied by a gps track and 47 waypoints, which are highlighted on the map for easy identification. These waypoints can be downloaded as a free gpx file and used on various gps phone apps and gps units, ensuring participants have accurate navigation throughout the challenge.

On the reverse side of the map sheet, we present a Locator Map using OS OpenData. This map showcases the location of the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge relative to a wide area of England, providing a broader context for participants. It also provides information on access points and facilities, making it easier for participants to plan their journey and prepare for the challenge.

The result of this meticulous process is a double-sided 600mm by 600mm map design. The map is printed on a 100-micron plastic substrate using a special UV curing inks process. This state-of-the-art printing technology ensures vibrant colors, sharp details, and durability, making the map suitable for any weather conditions and challenging terrains encountered during the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge.

What sets this map apart is its remarkable features. Not only is it lightweight, waterproof, and tearproof, but it is also fully recyclable. This means that after the challenge, participants can dispose of the map with confidence, knowing that it will have a minimal impact on the environment. The map folds up neatly like new, making it convenient to carry and store for future adventures.
