Wild. Solidaric. Unsupported.
Unsupported bikepacking challenge since 2021 – 750 km/550 km
The Steppenwolf is a non-commercial, self-supported bikepacking challenge across the country from Berlin to Usedom and back. Full of variety between technical trails on the Oderbruch, the beach promenade of Usedom, some nasty cobblestone pieces, Brandenburg sand passages and several kilometers along Brandenburg lakes, it goes across the steppe. The technically and physically tough wild track is between 700 and 800 km long each year, the gravel track (formerly short track) rolls better and is 500-550 km long.
In between there are three checkpoints where inexperienced drivers can also set up camp. Whether alone or in a pack, to speed things up or as a personal challenge – the Steppenwolf is there for everyone. It is not a classic bike race, but a wild ride between the metropolis and the sea.
