Ben Nevis at Night Trek

Take on an unforgettable challenge, and help make a difference for patients and families across Grampian.

Join the team at Global Adventure Challenges for the incredible Ben Nevis at Night Trek. This unique overnight adventure sees participants climb the UK’s highest mountain under the stars, before witnessing a breathtaking sunrise across the Scottish Highlands.

Guided by experienced mountain leaders, this demanding but rewarding trek takes you on a 12-mile journey to the summit of Ben Nevis, standing 1,345m above sea level.

Whether you’re taking part in memory of a loved one, supporting a hospital or ward close to your heart, or simply looking for an unforgettable challenge, every step you take helps support health and wellbeing projects across Grampian.

Why take on the Ben Nevis at Night Trek for NHS Grampian Charity?

Every pound raised helps fund the extras that go above and beyond core NHS services.

From creating more welcoming hospital environments and funding specialist equipment, to supporting groundbreaking research, advanced staff training, and patient wellbeing projects, your fundraising helps make healthcare better for people across Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray.

With more than 230 dedicated funds to choose from, you can support a hospital, ward, department, or medical condition that means something personal to you, making your challenge even more meaningful.

No hillwalking experience? No problem. While this is a challenging trek, you do not need previous climbing experience to take part. Full support, training guidance and fundraising advice will be provided to help you prepare for the challenge, and you’ll be supported throughout the trek by experienced mountain leaders.
