ABRUZZO GRAVEL 2026
An epic bikepacking adventure that will take you to explore the wildest side of Abruzzo and discover the lesser-known side of the region, pedaling along the Adriatic coast, through the hills, and to its highest peaks. You'll discover forgotten villages, pristine forests, and crystal-clear lakes, in an unforgettable experience.
REGISTRATIONS ARE OFFICIALLY OPEN
Now, you combine the tracks to design your own adventure, of any length. Your journey is unique, and it's YOURS.
Choose your path, set your pace. We only provide the foundation for your adventures.
ABRUZZO GRAVEL: a bikepacking travel experience tailored to your preferences.
A project designed to accompany you in the discovery of undiscovered routes, surprising panoramas, and the most authentic and lesser-known places in Abruzzo.
We'll provide various tracks that you can freely combine, pair, and organize, creating your ideal itinerary.
The itineraries wind through paths, dirt roads, side streets, and villages rich in history and character, immersed in natural landscapes of extraordinary beauty: a true balance where adventure meets hardship and together you're amazed by the landscape.
Each trail is like a petal: you can ride it alone or connect it to another, creating your own personal journey.
Whether you're an experienced cyclist or a novice, ABRUZZO GRAVEL is the bridge that connects our stories across the cobblestone streets and wild trails of Abruzzo.
Let "ABRUZZO GRAVEL" become the symbol of your passion for cycling and exploring the roads of our land!

ABRUZZO GRAVEL
QUI NON SI PEDALA SOLTANTO:
QUI SI VIVE L'ABRUZZO
Un viaggio da vivere a modo proprio, dove ogni partecipante scrive la sua avventura.
C’è chi pedala senza fermarsi, chi sceglie il cielo come tetto, chi rallenta per assaporare una cucina autentica o recuperare energie lungo il percorso.
