Multi-day cycling tours
Gravel riding, day after day
Beyond the last stretch of tarmac, the riding changes: rougher ground, closer attention to the line, often a slower pace. These gravel cycling tours connect unpaved sections with daily destinations and overnight stops. What matters is how gravel, paved roads and climbing are spread across the whole journey.

Choose equipment for the actual surface
Firm, fine gravel rides differently from loose stones, sand or washed-out tracks. Read the route description and set daily distances around the ground conditions and luggage. Tyres and water capacity depend on the specific route; the gravel label alone cannot answer those questions.
Planning questions
Are gravel tours entirely unpaved?
No. Paved connections can be part of the route. Check the individual stages and the surface information recorded for them.
Can every gravel tour be ridden on a loaded touring bike?
Not automatically. Loose or steep sections differ from firm forest roads. Check surfaces, gradients and any sections that may require pushing.
