Gritfest is a premier gravel cycling event that combines the thrill of off-road exploration with the challenge of endurance timed stage racing. Set in the stunning landscapes of the Cambrian Mountains in Wales, this event is designed for riders who crave adventure and enjoy pushing their limits. The event takes place over 3 days, with an optional prologue on Friday, and two main days of racing on Saturday and Sunday.

Featuring carefully curated routes, Gritfest offers a mix of scenic climbs, exhilarating descents, and technical sections, all showcasing the beauty and diversity of Welsh terrain. Riders compete across timed stages, blending the intensity of racing with the joy of social riding in untimed transition sections.

Beyond the bike, Gritfest is a celebration of the gravel cycling community. With a lively event village, food, drinks, and plenty of post-ride banter, it’s as much about the atmosphere as it is about the ride. Whether you’re chasing podiums or just out for the experience, Gritfest promises an unforgettable weekend of grit, grind, and good times.
