The Mournes Seven Sevens Endurance Challenge
Only for experienced hikers with heart, test your limits (and legs) with the ultimate extreme endurance climb - the original Mournes Seven Seven's Walk! It's a tough, long, hard hike of approx. 19 miles but our #TeamConcern route navigator will keep you motivated and going in the right direction all day long as you conquer all seven summits in the race of your life. NB: You must meet the time checks for each peak - or you're out!
We will be joining forces with the original event organisers, Lagan Valley Orienteers, to hike all seven Mourne Mountains in one day. The route for 2025 is clockwise and will be completed as follows: Slieve Donard (853m), Slieve Commedagh (765), Slieve Lamagan (704m) Slieve Binnian (747m) Slieve Meelbeg (708), Slieve Meelmore (687m) and Slieve Bearnagh (739m)! Could you take on this extraordinary extreme challenge to help families around the world out of extreme poverty?
As part of Team Concern you’ll receive
- A Concern worldwide sports T-shirt
- A fundraising pack and support from a dedicated fundraiser to help you smash your target
- Regular team emails
- A Finishers Certificate, much coveted 7x7s badge and your place in history!
