Cycle4Change 2026

20th – 23rd March 2026

In 2026 C4C we’ll discover the hidden gems of Northern Tasmania, while raising funds for Southern Cross Kids Camps’.

From Devonport, ride the rolling farmlands and vineyards of the Gunns Plains and Leven Valley. Visit the coastal towns of Penguin and Burnie, and tackle the region’s best climbs, including; Mount Roland (Sheffield), Cethana Rd and Spellmans Hill which provide panoramic views that stretch from the mountains all the way to Bass Strait.

We’ve been to Tassie before, but this is untapped territory for C4C and in our experience, Tasmania is a cycling experience not to miss. The great news is that by participating in this event you will be empowering @Southern Cross Kids Camps to deliver hope to kids who had an unfair start to life.
