If you’re registered with a GP in St. Austell, Bodmin or the Clay Villages, are aged 50+, managing a long-term health condition or want to improve your wellbeing, more active travel support is available through local health improvement practitioners. Please contact us by emailing natureconnections@edenproject.com to request a referral.

Many people enjoy being active for leisure, but don’t always consider means like walking or cycling as modes of transport. In fact, two thirds of car journeys in Cornwall are less than five miles long, which means more people are choosing to drive to work, school and other short distance locations, rather than using the time to be active.

Being active whilst getting from A to B is a great way to increase daily activity levels, whilst having a positive impact on health and wellbeing. It can also significantly reduce your carbon footprint and travel costs – it’s good for people and the planet.

Through our Active Travel Walking Events, you’ll discover a network of footpaths, cycle routes and bridleways that connect the Eden Project to neighbouring communities. You'll also meet like-minded people and get the chance to immerse yourself in nature. 

We’d love for you to become more familiar with these routes and be inspired to travel actively. 

We're able to run these events thanks to funding from the Active Travel Social Prescribing Fund and support from our staff and volunteers. The Active Travel Social Prescribing Fund aims to unite organisations as part of a 12-month project to increase active travel across the nation.
