Gatehouse of Fleet, Scotland

THE GRALLOCH SCOTLAND'S GRAVEL FESTIVAL

The Gralloch returns 14-16 May 2027. Don't miss three days of gravel racing, Sportives, Ultra, music, food, adventure and more.

Ride the Wild Beauty of Galloway

A TRUE GRAVEL CLASSIC

The Gralloch is Britain’s premier gravel cycling festival, celebrating endurance, adventure and world-class riding in the heart of Scotland.

‍Set against the stunning backdrop of the Galloway Forest Park, the weekend offers something for every kind of rider: a race, the 323-kilometre Genesis Gralloch Ultra presented by Maxxis, and a non-competitive Sportive for those who prefer to take in the views at their own pace.

But The Gralloch is more than just riding. Across the weekend you’ll find shakeout rides, panel talks, live music, local food, craft beer and a buzzing Event Village in the heart of Gatehouse of Fleet.

Come for the challenge, stay for the atmosphere, and be part of something unforgettable.
