The Haldon Heroic is a gravel ride / CX sportive showcasing the best gravel trails in the Haldon Forest Area.
There will be a professional photographer out on the course, taking action photos as a memento of your day with us.
All finishers will receive our unique Haldon Heroic Medal. For 2024 we are fully marking the Micro route (which is also the start & finish of the longer routes). However the Mega & Medio routes are predominantly self nav. We provide accurate, downloadable GPX Files compatible with most devices.
Or you can follow the route on your mobile phone using Komoot. Free Komoot navigation. is included with your entry. And the Komoot app for Garmin makes it super-easy to get the routes onto your device. We’ll also offer full technical support in advance of the event to ensure you have the correct route loaded.
The event is featured in 2024 Best of the Year on offroad.cc & Red Bull’s Best Cyclocross & Gravel Events. It was also reviewed by Cycling Weekly
