What is the Apex Challenge?
There is nothing else quite like an Apex Challenge weekend. It’s a unique adventure competition that you don’t want to miss.
Over the three days you will be tested with some of the toughest activities at any Scout competition.
Meeting teams from all across the British Isles you’ll make memories that last forever.
