Gravel Cycling

Gravel cycling brings you off the beaten track.

Perhaps you have tried bike packing, but now want to combine the freedom of cycling on tracks through forests or bushland with the luxury of having someone bring your luggage from one cozy hotel to the next.

Perhaps you want to cycle in terrain that you can’t by road bike while staying in a cozy town.

We know that gravel cycling is close to many cyclists’ hearts, and we are happy to create gravel adventures for you in multiple places in Europe.

Together with connoisseurs of the great gravel tracks in the regions we work in, we have day tours or gravel cycling holiday packages ready. We can also custom make a trip for you. Guided or self-guided.

Portugal

Cycle across the Algarve by gravel bike. During a week of cycling, you explore the coastal region in the very south of Europe by cycling from town to town. We bring your luggage between hotels, so all you carry is your water, snacks, and yourself while pedaling through undulating hills, forest, and stunning coastal land by the Atlantic Sea. From Faro to Sagres, stay in towns rich in culture and in good hotels. We can program the length of the trip to your wishes; it can be guided or self-guided.

We can custom-design gravel cycling in other parts of Portugal, both on the mainland or the Azores.

France

The Côte d’Azur has great gravel cycling tracks near Cannes or in mountain areas close to Nice. You can easily get some nice riding in if you want some days of gravel cycling. We recommend gravel cycling experiences as day tours and are happy to design guided or self-guided day tours for you.

Spain

Explore Catalonia in the northern part of Spain by gravel bike, where Girona is a hub for gravel cyclists.

We have an incredible trip for the adventurer who wants to slow travel from the Pyrenees to the Mediterranean Sea at Costa Brava by gravel bike. You cycle through volcanic landscapes, through countryside rich in olive groves, fruit trees, and rice fields. You visit medieval villages and can stay in charming boutique hotels, some of which have warming spa facilities where you can wind down after some hours by bike. We transport your luggage, and you can do the trip as guided or self-guided.

For the Girona enthusiast, we can create a stay for you in Girona or in a small town nearby so you can fully immerse yourself in the gravel cycling community in the area.

Italy

In Italy, we have gravel cycling adventures for you in either Liguria in the north or in Tuscany in central Italy. In both places, we can tailor-make a stay for you suitable for your level of gravel cycling. In Liguria, you will stay in or near Finale Ligure and do day tours from here. In Tuscany, we can either make a program with stays in multiple villages or one where you stay in one place and do day tours from there in the amazing Tuscany Maremma—the home of Strade Bianche.
