Across Catalunya is a self-supported, ultra-distance gravel adventure through the heart of Catalunya (Spain) — a “short” yet intense bikepacking challenge designed to push your limits while offering one of the most scenic point-to-point rides in Southern Europe.
The event begins in Vielha, nestled high in the Pyrenees, and finishes at the Mediterranean coast in Santa Susanna. Over the course of 400 km and 9,000+ meters of elevation gain, riders will have 42 hours to complete the route. It’s not a race — it’s a raw, unsupported experience that blends physical challenge with immersive landscape and a deep connection to the bike and the land.
This trans-Catalan journey takes you from snowy peaks to sea breezes, crossing through Alt Pirineu Natural Park, the stunning Cadí Moixeró, and the forests of Montseny and Montnegre i Corredor. Expect remote high-mountain passes, rolling gravel, technical descents, and forest trails — every kilometer is different, and every moment unforgettable.
Across Catalunya is crafted as a gateway into the world of ultra-distance gravel cycling. It’s ideal for riders looking to take on their first bikepacking challenge, offering an ambitious but more approachable format compared to longer multi-day events. With GPS navigation, geolocation tracking, and a strong community vibe, you’ll ride solo, but never truly alone.
Entry is limited to just 50 riders, keeping the experience intimate and adventure-focused. Optional services include pre-event transport from Santa Susanna to Vielha and accommodation packages to make logistics simple.
If you’re looking to start your journey into unsupported gravel, this is the place. If you’re looking to cross a country, connect with nature, and test yourself — Across Catalunya is calling.
From mountains to the sea. From doubt to discovery. Across Catalunya.
