Who is gravel biking in the Alps suitable for?
Gravel biking in the Alps is primarily aimed at experienced gravel bikers who love technically demanding trails and challenging climbs. Ideal for anyone who has already gained gravel experience and now wants to combine alpine challenges with unforgettable mountain panoramas.
What is the best way to prepare for a gravel bike holiday?
In addition to fitness and riding technique, the right bike set-up is particularly important if you want to enjoy your gravel bike holiday. You should pay particular attention to choosing the right gear ratio.
This is because the climbs in the Alps are longer and steeper than in classic gravel bike regions. It is therefore advantageous if you have a few lighter gears available.

The diversity of the Alps is what makes alpine gravel cycling so special. Start in the imposing Dolomites with their striking rock formations or discover high alpine mountain valleys in Austria, where challenging routes lead through wild nature and lonely heights.
