Challenge:

Long Course - 65 km with a 1,950 m climb: Dive deep into the heart of the valley with 80% of the route on forest roads or gravel singletrack. Tackle steep climbs, enjoy thrilling descents, and experience epic views with an ‘out-there’ feel that will push you to your limits. Plus, a delicious craft beer awaits you on-course, not far from the finish at the award-winning Cross Keys Inn.

Medium Course - 52 km with a 1,500 m climb: A balanced blend of challenge and enjoyment, this course offers a mix of scenic gravel paths and forest roads, perfect for those looking to test their endurance without committing to the longest distance.

Short Course - 35 km with a 900 m climb: Ideal for beginners or those looking for a shorter day out, this course still delivers the stunning landscapes and twisting gravel singletracks that make the Tweed Valley legendary. Also open to kids 12-15 riding with an adult.
