Event Summary

Event Overview

After a successful debut in 2015 the Eden Classic is back for its second year and offers three spectacular rides that take in the most scenic parts of the South Coast in Cornwall.

The Eden Classic organised by Tempus Leisure in partnership with the Eden Project gives riders the opportunity to enjoy the stunning Eden experience whilst supporting the international projects that bring about environmental, social, and economic regeneration.

Riders have a choice of three route options ranging from a short yet challenging ride of 35 miles, to a middle distance of 62 miles and a long ride for the experienced sportive rider of 100 miles. All of the routes offer riders the unique chance to pedal the length of Eden, past the world famous Rainforest and Mediterranean Biomes, as they start their challenging journey. They will ascend steep hairpin bends up the side of the former china clay quarry before taking in the dramatic scenery of the south Cornwall coast and a stop at Heligan where riders can refuel at a refreshment station at the entrance to the acclaimed Lost Gardens.
