Gravellissimo Waffel Ride 2026

The Gravellissimo Waffel Ride is a gravel cycling event held in Nortorf, Germany, organized by RSG Mittelpunkt Nortorf. Participants begin at 09:00 and can select from three GPS-tracked routes measuring 53, 74, or 95 km. This event is part of the Gravellissimo series and is intended for off-road, gravel, and mountain bike riders, not exclusively road racers. The routes are designed to be accessible, without demanding technical skills, and welcome gravel cycling newcomers. The elevation gain is moderate: approximately 320 meters for the 53 km route, 260 meters for the 74 km route, and 210 meters for the 95 km route. The event’s motto, “Race or Roll,” reflects its adaptable nature, allowing some participants to compete while others enjoy it as a relaxed autumn gravel excursion. Following the ride, participants convene at a self-organized Biker-Café for coffee, cake, and waffles, which are covered by the modest entry fee.
