Race the Sun Cheddar Gorge 2026
11 July @ 7:00 am – 5:00 pm

DAWN TO DUSK TRIPLE CHALLENGE
Race the Sun pits teams of two or four against the clock in an incredible triathlon-style team challenge that sees you bike, hike and paddle around a course between dawn and dusk, in a race against the setting sun.

Take on this incredible team challenge journeying through the spectacular and renowned Cheddar Gorge in Somerset, home to many caverns and, of course, the nation’s favourite cheese too!
As teams of two or four push your limits to complete a course that sees you bike, hike and paddle between dawn and dusk, racing the sun on this triathlon-style adventure charity fundraising challenge. This is a great first Race the Sun, challenging but achievable for all abilities!
For its first year in 2025, Race The Sun Cheddar Gorge sold out faster than any other event before, and with a smaller capacity it will very likely sell out again in 2026, so book now to avoid disappointment!
