Gravelling the world

Attention, gravel maniacs!

If you haven’t discovered Navarre yet, you’re missing the best party ever on wheels. The region has more landscapes than Instagram filters: from the imposing Pyrenees to the unexpected Bardenas Reales desert, passing through routes past cereal fields that are green in spring and golden in summer, vineyards that look like picture postcards, castles and fortresses that tell tales from other times, and reservoirs and rivers just screaming for you to take a dip.

Can you imagine riding routes that take you from mountains to deserts in the same day? Or pass mediaeval monasteries and villages where you can almost hear the silence? And if you like places with a touch of mystery, you can discover abandoned villages hidden along lonely paths; authentic gems to explore and photograph.

And after an epic adventure on your gravel bike, what better way to end the day than by enjoying Navarre's delicious cuisine and a good local wine?

So wait no longer! Strap on your helmet, get your gravel bike ready and come and discover the most amazing routes in Navarre: 2 EuroVelos, 5 rail trails and hundreds of perfect gravel routes throughout Navarre.

​​​​​​​We promise that once you pedal through these landscapes, you won't want to go home.
