An active, outdoor retreat – walks exploring the arrival of Spring in the Foxhill area offer space and time to reflect with God. With Spring firmly establishing itself, and just two weeks before we celebrate the resurrection, what better time to take to explore what God’s creation can teach us about the journey from death to life! Walks will be suitable for those with a moderate level of fitness or above.

Peaks and Troughs
A residential walking retreat at Scargill House, Yorkshire, BD23 5HU
10th to 14th May 2027
An active retreat – three day-long walks, each including one of the Yorkshire 3 Peaks offer you space and time to reflect with God. All walks are optional, but to get the most out of this this week, we anticipate that they will be most enjoyed by those who have already built up a good level of hill-walking fitness prior to the retreat. Connect with the Creator through His creation and develop your ability to hear God speak into your life through your everyday experiences.
Living Waters
A residential walking retreat at Scargill House, Yorkshire, BD23 5HU

An outdoor retreat of gentle water-themed walks in the Wharf Valley, providing space and time to reflect with God.

Walks will be fairly easy but footpaths may be uneven in places.

A residential walking retreat at Scargill House, Yorkshire, BD23 5HU

Build confidence in your map interpretation and compass use, leaving the well-trodden paths behind to consider how God guides us. Weather permitting, a night navigation session and the opportunity to wild camp above Scargill will also be offered.
Walking With Jesus

23rd to 27th August 2027
