On Friday, July 30th, we’ll open the Grävely Village near the Estonian National Museum (ERM), where you can take part in a fast-paced show race with a prologue and finals, enjoy a live concert, and explore top cycling brands at our EXPO area. We have saunas, sports talks with cycling ambassadors and REALLY good food.

Saturday starts with Morning-Rave by our awesome 13-year-old DJ. And then, with good vibes, we take on the longer challenges – 50 km, 92 km or 160 km. Routes are split into stages with community and food stops. Time stops at one of the main feeding points, giving you the chance to relax, enjoy great food, drinks, and good company. There is race, but that stays on the track!
After finish, enjoy the saunas, bike yoga, refreshing drinks and many recovery areas. The day ends with an epic afterparty at Tartu’s coolest nightspot – lights, music, and shared ride memories.

Who belongs to Grävely Fest?
The Cruiser – You ride at your own pace, stop whenever you like, and never check the time. Time? What’s that? You’re just cruising and soaking up the Grävely vibe.
The Tactician & Strategist – 159 or 92 km route, but you play it smart – warm up on one stage, go full gas on the next, and chill on the third. Competition and fun go hand in hand!
The Turbo Rider – If you start, you go all-in. All three stages at full throttle, no brakes allowed – just flat out and aiming for the podium!

Experienced group leaders will maintain the tempo and create an uplifting vibe!

Team ride
Team ride
If the full distance feels like too much, split the 160 km route into sections with your team. Along the route, you’ll find two larger community points where you can swap riders, enjoy great food, and vibe to good music. The ride follows a relay format – one team member rides their leg and passes the chip to the next rider.

Fresh route incoming...
Wide, winding gravel roads in the Tartu and Peipsiääre regions. Just a few kilometers along the shores of Lake Kaiu, and you’ll be completely under Grävely’s spell. Let the mud-splashing be left to MTB enthusiasts; we’ll ride on gravel between vast hills and beautiful pine forests.
We reserve the right and opportunity to adjust the route if needed. Who knows, we might find an exciting stretch that fits our route perfectly.
