The Spring Gathering

is organised by Challenge route-vetter, Alan Hardy and usually held in March or April. For many years it has been held at the Snake Pass Inn but this has recently undergone major refurbishment and it is not yet clear if we can return. t

It is it is a good opportunity for new Challengers to meet up with some old hands and experience the sociable side of the Challenge before the start of the event. Alan arranges a walk in the Derbyshire Hills as well as a three-course dinner.

Whenever we are next able to hold a Spring Gathering we will post details here.
