SOLD OUT NUMBERS

Badlands has been designed from our love of gravel, bikepacking, self-sufficiency, mountains, deserts and the sea. We wondered if it would be possible to put everything together in one event, and after a deep and fun exploration the result is Badlands.

The route is 85% off-road, most of it without technical difficulties, Gravel and MTB bikes are both welcome.

Badlands has a predetermined route from start to finish. If you decide to abandon it for any reason, you will have to pick it up later from the same point where you left off.
The official track will be sent to the registered riders weeks before departure.

The accumulated unevenness is a matter to consider. After leaving Granada, the route enters the Sierra Nevada to later descend into the Gorafe Desert. After ascending again to more than 2,000m in Calar Alto, the route follows the coast of Almería for more than 40km, before climbing again to more than 3,000m in Veleta.

As for the weather, be prepared for extreme heat in Gorafe and Tabernas and temperatures below 0C in Veleta.

If you prepare the route properly you will have no problem finding plenty of water and food. But remember, try to self-serve food for a day and refill the cans whenever you can.

It is forbidden to reserve any type of service before departure, which includes accommodation. Everything you have to need during the test must be reserved once it begins.
