Location

The Kent 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. Click here to view the location on Google Maps.

Overview

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.

Biking		14km - Fantastic undulating forest trails and some great singletrack in these big woods, breaking out onto tracks and quiet country lanes at times.
Running		9.5km - A mixture of pathways criss-crossing the Forest make the going easier, and great paths in the adjacent countryside.
Terrain		Undulating, but not harsh. Largely forested areas.
Water		0.5km - Special access to a unique body of water nearby.
Obstacles		The Green Machine is ready and waiting for you. We have an entertaining obstacle lined up for the water too!

Please note all distances are approximate and subject to change.
