What route are we taking?
In five amazing tracks we're heading from Southern Eifel in Germany to Heerlen. Route master Gijs has made magnificent stages (powered by komoot) which take you through Germany, Luxemburg, Belgium, Moresnet ;) and The Netherlands, The Ride Gravel tracks are a mix of paved and unpaved roads. during the route you will face sand, clay, grass, stony, rocky, cobblestones and tarmac surfaces. All stages except for last stage will have standard length stage (100 km, level: intermediate) or XL stage (up to 125 km, level: experts), both at least 60% off road; with a free choice every day for riders.
Provisional route. Subject to change. Final routes will be presented well in advance of the event. Our routemeister Gijs present to you all the standard routes of The Ride Gravel 2024. Day 1 to 4 has XL options, every day extra 20-30 kilometers and extra 250-500 elevation.

Can the route be altered?
