gravELLE club Women's Bikepacking Overnighter powered by Decathlon

gravELLE club - a community of women whose main focus is on shared rides, adventures on and off the bike and sharing experiences - will take you on a bikepacking overnighter that is also suitable for bikepacking newbies.

On Saturday at 16:30 we leave Zurich in the direction of Bremgarten (mainly off-road, approx. 25 km with approx. 450 meters in altitude), where we make ourselves comfortable in a corner of the Camping Sulz near Künten directly on the Reuss and spend the night in a tent (WC & shower are of course available, as well as a small restaurant). Shortly before we reach our destination, we can make a detour to the Coop in Berikon, where we can stock up for dinner (if not taken in the campsite restaurant) and breakfast on Sunday. On Sunday we take a detour back to Zurich (again mainly off-road, approx. 25 - 35 km with approx. 550 - 750 meters of elevation gain), where we should arrive at the Brunau site by 14:00 at the latest. The ride is about waiting for everyone and is not about speed, competition and rankings, but about community and togetherness.

To all workshops

Sara organizes gravel rides and bikepacking adventures for women and occasionally also for mixed groups (+FRIENDS) with the gravELLE club in the Bern area. The aim is to create space for female riders who do not yet have much experience with gravel and bikepacking on the one hand and female riders who are perhaps already very experienced but want to ride with women only from time to time.
