Excursión ciclista de un día de Dover a Canterbury

Ready for a jaunt from coastal cliffs to cathedral city? This rewarding ride begins in Dover, famous for its dramatic white chalk cliffs and rich maritime history—if you have time, a look at Dover Castle is a must. Leaving the sea breeze behind, you’ll wind through the Kent countryside on mostly quiet roads (about 88% of your route), giving you plenty of moments to enjoy bucolic views.

While the surfaces are largely paved or asphalt, there’s a quirky mix of paths and access roads to keep things interesting. You’ll encounter some gentle climbs and descents, maxing out at around 126 meters elevation—a decent workout but nothing too extreme. With nearly 40 km to cover, you’ll pass through charming villages and rolling fields before arriving in Canterbury, renowned for its stunning cathedral and medieval streets.

All in all, it’s a scenic ride that blends British heritage with countryside bliss. Why not treat yourself to tea and cake in Canterbury to finish?
