The Redwood Creek Challenge takes place on the Bedgebury Forest Estate, which lies within the ancient Weald of Kent, and is an easy trip down the A21 from the M25 circular just past Royal Tunbridge Wells.

Our event location lies just off the A21 before Flimwell village arriving via the B2079.

At this location there are the tremendous attractions of Bedgebury Pinetum, Go Ape and of note is the nearby location of the Bell Bedgebury International School.

This location has never been used for Adventure events of this nature before and our partners are very excited to present this to showcase this beautiful area to you.

Overview

Bedgebury National Pinetum and forest is the premier outdoor site in the Southeast of England. With nearly 10,000 trees and shrubs the Pinetum is the most complete collection of temperate conifers in the world, it is also an important site of ex situ conservation and a centre of excellence. The adjacent Bedgebury Forest is great for cycling, walking, riding, adventure play and Go Ape. Safe, healthy outdoor fun for all ages and abilities in the heart of South East England. Open all year & great value for money, Bedgebury is the place to visit on the Kent/Sussex border.

Our base of operations for the day is set among 1,000 acres of this delightful forest estate and you will find yourself striking out from here across country and deeper into the forest.
