Badlands

Badlands is Europe's wildest gravel challenge: ~800 km and ~16,000 m of climbing. You'll cross European deserts, the Mediterranean coast and Pico Veleta as the culminating point. Endurance alone isn't enough: you need to survive extreme days, manage the continuous wear of gravel riding and maintain power on prolonged climbs to survive each segment. Many ultra-distance cyclists train for their challenges with NUA.
