About the Event

Embark on the ultimate self-supported bikepacking expedition across the Iberian Peninsula with the Iberica Traversa, starting on September 20, 2026.

Traverse a living tapestry of history and extreme landscapes, from the Martian-like Gorafe Depression and the raw Bardenas Reales desert to the iconic Alhambra in Granada. With no time limit, this adventure is a pure test of self-reliance, inviting you to write your own story on a route forged through ancient trails and unparalleled natural beauty. Registration opens December 1, 2025.
