Ten Tors

Ten Tors challenge 2025

Google Classroom code: coyjldh

Please continue to follow follow this online classroom for selected participants and joining instructions.

It’s with great pleasure that we set out our plans to you for Ten Tors 2025. Firstly I can confirm that the Army has offered St Peter’s two teams at the 35 Mile distance. This is a unique opportunity to participate in the UK’s largest organised event for teenagers. As always we have a limited number of spaces (Circa 28) so if selected to train, participation must be maintained to keep your place; please note that in recent years 50+ participants have applied for places to train. Year 10s are welcome to place their bids for a place. We require a permission / bid slip to acknowledge your confirmation to the commitment we will need and expect of your place within the training cohort.

Selection for Ten Tors teams will be based on a combination of attendance, abilities and willingness to work in a team! The distances walked, the amount of kit carried, and the level of fitness required is expected to build over the training period. Teams’ selection is the ultimate decision of the Ten Tors Manager. The team manager will access the best candidates based on a range of skills observed over the training period by our qualified and experienced staff.

The following dates can be subject to change depending on factors out of our control such as availability of qualified staff and the weather. Additional classroom lessons will be posted in due course; these classroom sessions will cover basic map & compass skills, route planning, equipment, Ten Tors Rules & basic first aid.
