Track miles. Change young lives.
Sign up with friends, family or colleagues to walk or ride and support The King's Trust.
Walkers will enjoy iconic Windsor landmarks whilst cyclists ride from Buckingham Palace itself to Windsor Palace!
The festival finish features live music, delicious food, children’s entertainers and much more. Bring your fans to cheer you across the finish line and soak up the atmosphere!
Palace to Palace is the charity's flagship cycling event. Now in its 17th year, the event has raised over an incredible £6 million to support young people facing adversity.
The Palace Walk is new for this year so you can be one of the first to complete it!
Enter now and be the turning point for a young life.
You need to be confident to ride on open roads and in traffic. All riders are chip-timed but Palace to Palace is not a race, most people take part to enjoy a fun cycle ride! Many participants are not experienced cyclists, but some people who take part are experienced and try to beat personal best times. Advanced cyclists are encouraged to take part in the Ultra.
Finish times vary greatly with some riders finishing in just a couple of hours whilst others take all day. There is no rush but the finish festival does close at 17.00. If you think the ride will take you most of the day, start in one of the earlier waves.
Road bikes, mountain bikes, handcycles, e-bikes, tandems.
All bikes need to be in good working order and will be checked at the start line before you set off.
Fans are encouraged to meet you at the finish so they can cheer you on as you cross the finish line and watch you collect your fantastic medal. The finish festival includes live music, children's entertainment, a bar and plenty of food stalls so you can lay back and relax after your challenge!
Sadly, the Racecourse does not allow dogs on site so you will not be able to walk with a dog. However, guide dogs are permitted.
The walking route is not fully accessible. There are sections along the footpaths which have step access.
A half marathon walk is not to be underestimated; walkers should be able to comfortably walk a minimum of 10km before undertaking the event.
You may run the route instead however, the event timings are based on walking speeds so if you do decide to run then just be aware that water stations may not be ready.
