If you have reached the top of any or all of the Three Peaks, why not print a certificate?  

You can use either our online certificate that will print your name and climb date for you or you can print a blank certificate and write your name and climb date on it yourself.

Please note that the online version requires JavaScript to be enabled in your Web browser. Most browsers do, but if not, you should use the blank certificate.

You can also purchase exclusive aluminium medals to record your walk. They are year dated and available for Whernside, Pen-y-ghent, and Ingleborough or for the Three Peaks. They can be purchased from National Park Centres and many retailer, pubs and cafes within the Three Peaks area as well as our online shop.
