Challenge Events

A Prince’s Trust Challenge Event is a physically demanding journey that could change your life forever.

  • A world of adventure awaits you in Finnmark where, in the awe-inspiring Arctic wilderness, the Northern Lights can be seen dancing across the night skies. This Challenge takes place in one of the most remarkable environments in the world.
  • Beyond the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, on the northern frontier of the Sahara, the Jebel Sahro is the rugged mountainous setting for this week-long desert Challenge. You will follow an ancient trade route still used by Berber and Toureg tribesmen..
  • From mountain to beach, rainforest to raging rivers, take on an extraordinary journey through the heart of this diverse tropical island. Borneo is one of the most exciting, remote and untouched locations on earth.
  • Discover one of the world’s great wonders on this exhilarating five day adventure – trekking along the ancient walls and ramparts of the Great Wall of China.
  • Go Wild for a weekend - hike, bike and kayak 100 miles in 3 days, coast-to-coast across Somerset and Devon, racing against other teams and the clock.
  • For the first time, we present this brand new Action Challenge in Nepal, an exciting multi-activity adventure through the stunning Annapurna region of the Himalayas.
