The upcoming season of the UCI Gravel World Series will feature 45 stages in 32 countries, with the Tartu Bicycle Marathon to be held on September 19th also included in the calendar.
Gravel racing is gaining popularity around the world, and this is also reflected in the number of stages - while 33 races were planned this year, there will be a dozen more in 2026. The series was launched in 2022 with 12 stages.
In addition to Tartu, there will be other stages in the surrounding region: Tukums (Latvia) will host riders on August 8, Halmstad (Sweden) on August 15, and Lahti (Finland) on September 12. In addition to Europe, the calendar includes stages in Asia, Africa, and America.
The Gravel World Championships will be held in Nannup, Western Australia, from 10-11 October, and you can earn points at the UCI Gravel World Series stages to secure a better starting position. There will also be a stage in Nannup in May, which will provide an opportunity to get to know the conditions of the title race.
