All three routes begin at Princes Risborough School with 6.5, 10 and 18-mile options available. The longest of the routes tackles all three peaks – Whiteleaf Cross,
Coombe Hill and Ivinghoe Beacon –before a bus takes walkers back to the start point. Transport for the day has been provided Arriva which is providing both vehicles and drivers to support the event.
Laura Elliot, head of supporter fundraising at Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care, says: “The Chilterns 3 Peaks is a long-established event in the area that has been well supported by local people over the years. Every penny raised by the event is used to provide patient care and as we have extended the reach of our services through our recent merger, we’re aiming to make it even more successful than ever before - so we can reach more people in our local area.

Each year we see walkers taking part with their friends, family, colleagues or even their four-legged friends! So why not get a group together, sign up and play your part in raising funds to support care for local people with a life-limiting illness?”
