Event Summary

Event Overview

This route will take you on a tour of the marsh before climbing into a nice undulating route across towards Tenterden before bringing you back across country to Aldington for the halfway feed station.

Make sure you fuel up as the second half of the route is much more hilly. You will now head out towards Canterbury and take in some significant climbs up onto the tops of the Devils Kneading Trough before making your way across to Stelling Minnis and back down past Farthing Common (part of the Tour de France route) and then home to Aldington.

This route offers some of the best views in Kent.
