The Three Peaks - one big annoyance?

Many people every year complete the Three Peaks walk for charity.
There are several versions of the 3 Peaks.

One has people in cars and minibuses travelling between Snowdon, Ben Nevis and Scafell Pike. This is the National 3 Peaks Challenge.

I've completed the other one myself, some years ago. It's based in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
The three peaks are Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-y-Ghent.
There's also a Welsh 3 Peaks Challenge.

I picked up an article from the Craven Herald: a paper which is local to the Yorkshire Dales, which had a lot unhappy people living in a village near one 'end' of the trail. They describe the 'hell' this is causing them because of anti-social behaviour. This article provides a little more detail on charity events and their impact on residents, along with a poll. Thousands of pounds are raised for charity every year by walkers completing the route.

There is a Code of Conduct which walkers are asked to adhere to for the National walk.

This is one I'll return to later...
