The London to Paris Bike Ride is an awesome cycling challenge and by far one of the best fundraising events in Europe, attracting hundreds of riders each year and raising thousands of pounds for charities nationwide. You’ll spend 4 days in the saddle, cycling from capital to capital with our partner our partner Discover Adventure.
Passing through picturesque Kent countryside, you will cross the Channel and continue through the small villages and medieval market towns of Northern France. With long days in the saddle and some strenuous hill-climbs, the sight of the Eiffel Tower, the finishing point, will evoke a real sense of achievement. After your pedal to Paris, the last day allows you to explore the sights and soak up the romantic atmosphere of this majestic city!
Challenge highlights:
- Travel between two iconic capital cities by bike!
- Celebrate your achievement in style in Paris
- Combine iconic landmarks and history with picturesque scenery
*You pay the non-refundable Registration Fee to Discover Adventure to administer the challenge, and to secure relevant permits. You then commit to raising the minimum sponsorship – 80% of the minimum sponsorship MUST be received by the charity no later than 12 weeks before departure. The charity will then pay for your Challenge Costs out of the sponsorship raised.
