Three steps to your first ride.

GravelBoost helps you find adventure rides in Europe that are not extreme. Every route is ridden first, so we can tell you what it is really like.

Pick a route in three steps

  1. Choose a destination.
  2. Check the first screen of a journey: distance, climbing, time, surface and adventure level.
  3. Read the Honest answers, then get the pack with the GPX and the offline guide.

Adventure level

Every journey has a level from 1 to 5.

  1. 1 Easy Wide, firm paths and short days.
  2. 2 Accessible Mostly firm gravel, a few soft parts.
  3. 3 Adventurous Longer days, sand or rough bits.
  4. 4 Demanding Remote or rough. You need skills and spares.
  5. 5 Extreme Not what we are here for.

What do you need?

A gravel bike or a mountain bike, depending on the route. Each journey says what fits. If you ride an e-bike or ride with kids, the Honest answers tell you if it works.
