SOHK Brecon Beacons 10 Peak Challenge

2022 is SOHK’s 10th anniversary year – so what better way to mark the occasion and raise some funds than to get a big group of our friends and supporters together to take on the 10 Peaks Challenge! Guided by trusted experts at Adventure Events Team, we will scale 10 peaks in the beautiful Brecon Beacons, covering a total of 36km (22miles) over the course of a day. It’s no small challenge – particularly when you throw 1800m of climb into the mix!
