Join us at the Nugent Arctic Challenge from the 2nd to the 9th of March 2025 for an unforgettable experience in the heart of Sweden’s breathtaking wilderness.
Imagine eight days in the middle of Sweden, set in a stunning and pristine wilderness environment, miles from anywhere. This once in a lifetime challenge combines your ability to adapt to and live in the heart of this environment, as well as experience tranquillity, and relaxation under the stars of the Arctic; all while raising money for the most vulnerable individuals and families across Merseyside.
What to expect:
Who can take part in the Arctic Challenge?
The Arctic Challenge is open to everyone but is ranked as ‘tough’. It is recommended to follow a physical fitness plan before the trek, including walking, cross training and building upper body strength. This is because the activities will be physically demanding at times (5-7 hrs per day) and involves cross-country skiing, husky driving, digging snow holes and being out in the cold for long periods of time.
When you sign up, there will be opportunities to receive tailored training programs to prepare you for this unforgettable journey.
