There are many ways in which you can attempt to walk the National 3 peaks, here are some suggestions :

	24 Hour Challenge
	A Weekend Challenge
	The Leisurely Alternative

Your 3 peaks challenge is complete when you drive to Caernarfon Castle and touch the water at the side of the castle car park.  When attempting this challenge in 24 hours extra care should be taken because of the increased exertion required to complete in the time limit.

Exhaustion can overcome you while on the mountain, and then when you stop, even for a short while, hypothermia can become a problem very quickly.
