The Prince of Wales Hospice in Pontefract is inviting individuals, families, friends, local clubs, and businesses to take on one of three exciting trekking challenges in 2026, all to help support vital local hospice care.

The treks are delivered by Elite Adventures, an experienced third‑party challenge provider, and participants support the hospice through sponsorship and fundraising.

Adventurers can choose from Snowdon for Sunrise, Ben Nevis, or the Yorkshire Three Peaks at Night. Every step helps raise essential funds for patients and families across the community.

Each trek offers the chance to experience some of the UK’s most breathtaking landscapeswhile challenging yourself physically and mentally.

Take on an unforgettable challenge for The Prince of Wales Hospice.
