London to Paris cycle challenge

Take on the London to Paris challenge for your local Hospice for a truly inspirational experience. You will make friends for life, push yourself beyond your limits but most of all make memories you will cherish for a lifetime.

Ride the iconic London To Paris Cycle Challenge and join the team for a wonderful adventure

The London to Paris Bike Ride is an incredible challenge and is by far one of the best fundraising events in Europe, so why not take part and raise money for St Gemma’s in the process!

You will spend 4 days in the saddle, cycling 309 miles from capital to capital. The journey begins in London with the route taking you through the glorious English countryside as you cycle from Kent to Dover, before crossing the English channel to Calais.

Once you are across the water, you start cycling ‘French style’, remembering to keep to the right! You will cycle along quiet French county lanes, through traditional market towns with the beautiful views of the rolling green hills of Northern France.

A spectacular finish awaits you as you reach the home stretch around the Arc de Triomphe, and along the Champs Elysees, before reaching the piece de resistance, the Eiffel Tower, which marks our finish line. The days in the saddle may be long but the sense of achievement you will feel crossing the finish line and the euphoric atmosphere as you celebrate your achievements in the magnificent capital, the saddle soreness soon wears off!
