GravelUp trips combine sporting adventure, local immersion and seamless logistics. Group departures usually bring together 8 to 12 participants maximum. Self-guided departures are available from a minimum of two people.

Each day, you will ride between 40 and 80 km, with elevation gain adapted to your level, averaging between 500 and 1,500 meters of climbing, on carefully selected gravel routes blending smooth tracks, forest trails and quiet backroads.

For group departures, experienced guides lead the way, with mechanical support and refreshments provided along the routes. Accommodation is always comfortable and thoughtfully selected, featuring local cuisine, wellness sessions such as yoga and stretching, and convivial moments that complete the experience.

If you’re still unsure, just write to us at bonjour@gravelup.earth — we’ll be happy to help you assess the right level for you.
