This summer, get ready to embrace the outdoors like never before with our Summer of Cycling initiative. We want to encourage as many people as possible to get outside and start pedaling. Summer provides an excellent opportunity to explore scenic routes, parks, and trails. At Explore Kent, we’ve got you covered with all of our cycle routes and cycle parks to keep you busy. Whether you’re cycling through lush green landscapes, along coastal paths, or through picturesque towns, the beauty of nature enhances your ride. We are working with Greener Kent on this initiative, committed to reducing the impacts of climate change, and the biodiversity crisis. Keep an eye on our social media to see our collaboration on this project.
