Challenging Scouts in wild and remote places

About The Fells Events

The Fells Marathon and Wolds Challenge are hiking events run for Scouts primarily in the Humberside area, but they're open to Scouts anywhere in the UK.

The events are aimed at everyone completing the course and they are set as such. The skill is in route finding and being able to read the map!

The pages on this site will not only tell you about the upcoming events, but also give some valuable tips for your team to be successful.
