GRAVEL DESERT by The Traka | 11 APRIL 2026

Both Gravel Desert routes begin and end in Grañén, crossing the most emblematic parts of Los Monegros. Expect wide gravel roads, long straight lines, technical sections, and demanding climbs like Santa Quiteria, which offer both challenge and panoramic desert views.

This landscape is known for:

  • Hardpack desert gravel
  • Fast rolling terrain
  • Wind — the true wildcard
  • Dust and open sky as far as the eye can see
  • The combination of speed, exposure and terrain variety makes

Gravel Desert an intense and memorable ride for any gravel cyclist.
