Enduro, mountain bike and gravel races gathered in one place. We follow the calendars
through the winter and update the page as organizers release
their dates, so you don't have to search through twenty websites.
The 2027 race calendar — enduro, cross-country and gravel, from national championships to the big multi-day races.
In August 2026, the UCI and Warner Bros. Discovery confirmed that 2026 was the final Enduro World Cup season. From 2027 only one global title remains: the World Championships. Crankworx has announced a new international series but has not named its venues.
Gravel at Châtel on 26–27 August, enduro at Morillon on 30 August, marathon at Samoëns on 1 September and cross-country at Les Gets on 2–4 September. One trip to Haute-Savoie covers the world championships in all three disciplines.
Lahti in Finland hosts the European championships on 30 July–1 August 2027, with registration opening on 28 October 2026. This is the closest major international gravel race Nordic riders will get for years.
Chile
Expected January–February 2027
Southern summer, which makes it the natural target for Nordic riders wanting to race in our off-season. Andes to Pacific with enormous descents.
Rotorua, New Zealand
Rotorua confirmed for 2027 — dates not set (2026: 20–22 March)
The venue is locked for 2027; only the dates are outstanding. March means southern autumn, and a genuine off-season target. New Zealand also runs a nine-round enduro series of its own.
Sweden — five rounds
Expected late April to early September 2027
The 2026 series ran at Göteborg, Sunne, Gesunda, Sundsvall and Ulricehamn, where the final round doubled as the Swedish championship. One round is dropped from the overall. Classes from 13 years to masters 45+, plus sport and e-bike.
Piedmont and Liguria, Italy
Expected late April to autumn 2027, expanded
Enrico Guala and Franco Monchiero relaunched Superenduro in 2026 with four rounds and said openly that the full-size series arrives in 2027. Every round is open to both bikes and e-bikes. With the World Cup gone, this is the European series most likely to absorb its riders.
Germany — six rounds
Expected spring to October 2027
The largest German-language enduro series. Six stops with up to 700 starters each, drawn from Treuchtlingen, Lichtenfels-Trieb, Biebergemünd-Roßbach, Schulenberg, Rabenberg and Bad Endbach. Classes from beginner to pro, several e-bike categories, and entry fees deliberately held down.
Entry: Series entry 1 December 2026, individual rounds early January
Pacific Northwest, USA
Expected May–September 2027
Six rounds. The 2026 series ran at Capitol Forest, Raging River, Thrillium, the Northwest Tune-Up in Bellingham, Tiger Mountain and Hood River. Youth race the same stages as adults, best four of six count, and the series has put around $350,000 back into trail work since 2013.
Scotland — four rounds, including Fort William
Expected spring to autumn 2027
In 2026 round one doubled as a British round, and the Fort William finale was a triple-header: Scottish round, British round and Scottish championship. The clearest competitive pathway left in British enduro.
Several European venues
Calendar usually announced in early December
The dedicated e-enduro tour. Rounds are hosted inside existing national events — in 2026 Méribel held a round and Castino in Italy was also part of it.
Aberdeenshire, Scotland
Expected May, August and September 2027
Three rounds run by Doon Tha Brae, who marked a decade of events in 2026. Bikes and e-bikes, adult and youth categories.
Italy — the FCI national circuit
Expected spring to autumn 2027
The federation's own Italian circuit, separate from Superenduro. The 2026 championship went to Corno alle Scale. Italy remains the largest enduro racing market in Europe by participation.
Sierra Nevada and Oregon, USA
Expected spring to autumn 2027
The 2026 stops were Georgetown, China Peak, Dodge Ridge, Northstar California and the Ashland Mountain Challenge. A mix of resort venues and rougher terrain.
Madeira and Porto Santo, Portugal
24–29 May and 27 September–2 October 2027
Six days, 250km and over 30 special stages across both islands. Bike camp format with everything included. Two editions a year and both fill up, with riders from more than 50 nations.
Drammen, Norway
Expected June 2027
One of the longest-running Norwegian enduros, held almost every year since 2014. Close enough to Oslo to be an easy day trip.
Finale Outdoor Region, Liguria, Italy
Several events through the year
The spiritual home of enduro, and host of the 2026 World Championships in October. Less a single race than a year-round destination. As relevant for shop trips as for racing.
Rocky Mountains, USA
Expected summer 2027
Long-running series that bills itself as the premier one in North America. High-altitude western venues. The schedule normally lands over winter.
Verbier (CH) · Méribel (FR) · Aletsch Arena (CH)
Verbier 3–5 July · Méribel 21–23 August · Aletsch 11–13 September 2027
The original pairs-format enduro. Everything is raced in teams of two: one number, one chip, and you must start and finish every stage together. Three days, around 15 blind stages, over 10,000m of descending and under 1,500m of climbing thanks to lifts. A short course of 12 stages for those who want it gentler. E-bikes allowed.
Entry: Registration opens 6 December 2026 — sold out in under an hour last year
France — five rounds
Expected July–September 2027
The oldest enduro tour in France, now in its third decade. The 2026 series ran at Isola 2000, Méribel, Valmeinier and the Pyrenees, finishing at Luchon-Superbagnères. Bikes and e-bikes together. The 2027 calendar is usually published in late November.
Entry: Mid-February for FFC licence holders, early March for everyone else
Swaledale, Yorkshire Dales, England
Expected late July 2027 (2026: 24 July)
Britain's largest enduro festival and arguably its largest bike event of any kind. A 40km loop with 1,500m of climbing and over 1,000 starters in the Saturday enduro alone. Big expo and demo loops.
Whistler, British Columbia, Canada
Expected July/August 2027
Founded in 2009 and one of the most recognisable enduro races anywhere. Confirmed as part of the new Crankworx series, and therefore the anchor of whatever that becomes.
Nittedal, Norway
Expected 2027, date not set
A well-established youth enduro that has broadened out. Grassroots, and close to Oslo.
Bollington, Cheshire, England
Expected August 2027 (2026: 7–9 August)
Run by the Bryceland siblings, Josh included, and now something of a cult classic. Bolly Full is 25–30km with 800–1,000m of climbing over eight stages; Bolly Half is 15–20km over five. Camping and festival-only tickets available.
Harstad, Troms, Norway
Expected summer 2027
The northern Norwegian fixture, run consistently since 2018. A long trip from Oslo, but the anchor for the entire scene up north.
Eastnor Deer Park, Ledbury, England
Expected August 2027 (2026: from 20 August)
The heritage British festival, reborn. A five-stage enduro inside a four-hour window with no fixed start times. Also dual slalom, 4X nationals, retro shows and Britain's largest trade expo. A festival ticket is required on top of race entry.
Entry: 2027 weekend tickets already on sale — 2026 sold out
French Alps
Expected summer 2027
One of the originals of the format — a week point-to-point through the Savoie Alps. Confirm it is actually running before planning around it.
Morillon – Grand Massif, Haute-Savoie, France
Monday 30 August 2027
The season's only global title now that the World Cup has been discontinued. Run inside the UCI Cycling World Championships, which stage 20 world championships across Haute-Savoie from 24 August to 5 September. Same venue that held the final-ever World Cup round in 2026. Enduro and e-enduro both race on the 30th.
Entry: Via your national federation
Aberdeenshire → Highlands → Tweed Valley, Scotland
Expected September 2027 (2026: 6–13 September)
Scotland's first multi-day enduro, which debuted in 2026 with 80 riders from 19 nations, 39 stages and 250km over six days. All-inclusive, hotels and uplift. Founded by former pro Chris Hutchens.
Entry: Application window in January — lasted one week last year
British Columbia interior, Canada
Expected early September 2027
Six days, all-inclusive, blind racing. The 2026 edition ran through Revelstoke, Nakusp, Kaslo and Nelson. Hotel beds, three meals a day and all transport. A three-day option is available.
Host not confirmed — Trysil hosted 2026
Expected late August to mid-September 2027
In 2026 the championship ran at Trysil on 12–13 September alongside an open event and a recruitment race for 10–13 year olds. The federation has opened host applications for 2027 but the venue is not published.
Trysil, Innlandet, Norway
Expected early to mid-September 2027
The eighth edition ran in 2026 and carried national championship status. Five timed stages through mountain and forest terrain on both built and natural trail. Open class and a recruitment race for juniors.
Scuol, Samnaun and Val Müstair, Lower Engadine, Switzerland
15–19 September 2027
Multi-day enduro through the Lower Engadine, with Scuol as the base each night and stages via Samnaun and Val Müstair. Every stage is raced blind. Around 40km a day, 1,600m of climbing and 2,800m of descending, with lifts and shuttles in between. A young race that the organiser themselves call episode 2 for 2027, and the dates have shifted between years — check the organiser's site for the entry window.
Pacific Northwest, USA
Expected 2027, dates not set
Blind and remote, four days on trails the organisers have largely rebuilt themselves. The other half of the North American trans pairing alongside Trans BC.
Zona Zero, Aínsa-Sobrarbe, Pyrenees, Spain
Expected autumn 2027 — needs confirming
A marathon-flavoured enduro on the ancient trading paths around Aínsa, the network that hosted an EWS round in 2015. We have not been able to confirm the 2027 dates with the organiser.
Benasque and Val d'Aran, Pyrenees, Spain
Expected late September / October 2027
High-mountain blind enduro through the central Spanish Pyrenees. Five days in total, four days of racing, based in the Benasque valley.
Oaxaca, Mexico
Expected late October 2027 (2026: 20–25 October)
Multi-day racing along the Sierra Norte range, timed to coincide with Día de los Muertos. New trails to race blind every year, from the Sierra Norte forests down towards the Pacific.
Australia — Collie, Western Australia in 2026
Expected October 2027 (2026: 21–25 October)
National and Oceania championships in one event. Australia also runs state-based enduro series across six states.
Venues not announced — Whistler confirmed
Calendar not yet published
Announced the day after the UCI shut down the World Cup. The stated aim is a consistent global calendar built on participation and the world's best trails. The only firm commitment is the Canadian Open Enduro at Whistler.
Oropesa del Mar, Spain
Expected February 2027
An early-season UCI-ranked stage race on the Spanish Mediterranean coast. It draws plenty of pros using it to build form before the season. A realistic option for Nordic riders wanting out of winter.
Western Cape, South Africa
21–28 March 2027
The best-known mountain bike stage race in the world. Eight days, 701km and 17,150m of climbing, raced in teams of two who must finish together. Full-service camp every night. Apply early — places are released in tiers and go fast.
Entry: Waiting list open
Kvarner, Croatia
NOT running in 2027
After eleven editions, 4Islands drops off the Epic Series calendar for 2027. Listed here because it is easy to plan from old information. The organiser has not said whether it returns.
Morocco, between the Atlas Mountains and the Sahara
Expected late April / early May 2027
Six days and around 600km through the Moroccan desert, running since 2006. Navigation is part of the challenge, and it is a very different proposition from the alpine stage races.
Gothenburg, Sweden
2027, dates not set
Five days, over 400 riders from more than 30 nations and 13 titles, including team relay and cross-country at elite, U23 and junior level. The closest international championship for Nordic riders in years. Note this is cross-country, not enduro.
La Massana, Andorra
1–4 July 2027
Four days, 200km and 6,430m of climbing in the Pyrenees. Shorter and steeper than the rest of the Epic Series, with four nights of half board included. A good first step if Cape Epic feels like too much.
Entry: Registration opened August 2026, open until sold out or 6 June 2027
British Columbia, Canada
Expected early July 2027
Seven days and the nickname 'the ultimate singletrack experience'. Point-to-point through the Cowichan Valley, Cumberland, Powell River, Sechelt and Squamish. Running since 2007.
Austria to Italy
Expected mid-July 2027
Seven stages and over 700km from Austria across the Alps to Italy. One of the most established stage races in Europe, and the classic way to cross the Alps on a mountain bike.
Alta and the Finnmark plateau, Norway
24–31 July 2027
The world's longest mountain bike race north of the Arctic Circle, running since 2008. Distances of 150, 300 and 700km, plus shorter classes down to 20km for juniors. Close to 800 riders from seven nations, and midnight sun the whole way. Checkpoints are staffed mountain lodges.
Entry: Price increases 18 January 2027
Breckenridge, Colorado, USA
15–20 August 2027
Six days, around 355km and 12,200m of climbing in the Colorado high country. Cloverleaf format: every stage starts and finishes within a mile of town, so you stay in one place all week. A three-day option exists for a taster.
Entry: Registration open via BikeReg
Swiss Alps
17–21 August 2027
Five days through the Alps, and what the Epic Series itself calls the toughest mountain bike stage race in the world. The closest major stage race for Nordic riders in both travel time and climate.
Entry: Registration opened 22–23 September 2026
Rena to Lillehammer, Norway
Saturday 28 August 2027
Norway's largest mountain bike race, run for the 34th time. 84km from Rena across the mountains to Lillehammer. Part of SykkelBirken alongside UltraBirken, HalvBirken and the junior races. The trade expo at Håkons Hall runs on 27 and 28 August.
Samoëns – Grand Massif, Haute-Savoie, France
Wednesday 1 September 2027
Marathon worlds on the same 400km Grand Massif trail network that hosts the enduro worlds two days earlier. Close enough together to do both on one trip.
Les Gets, Portes du Soleil, France
2–4 September 2027
Cross-country worlds at Les Gets, which held its first World Cup in 1996 and last hosted worlds in 2022. Part of the UCI Cycling World Championships in Haute-Savoie. The downhill worlds run on the same hill on 27–28 August.
Western Cape, South Africa
3–12 November 2027
The most accessible of the Epic Series races, run across several waves in November. Shorter stages and less climbing than Cape Epic, through the winelands and along the coast.
Girona, Spain
February 2027
The Girona season opener, and a more relaxed affair than the Traka. Several distances, and a good excuse to head south early in the year.
Girona, Catalonia, Spain
30 April–2 May 2027
Europe's most important gravel race and the cornerstone of the Gravel Earth Series. Three days of distances: 200km on Friday, 300km on Saturday and 100km on Sunday, plus a 560km self-supported option. Rocky Mediterranean gravel with forest singletrack mixed in. Recommended tyres are 45–50mm.
Entry: Registration opened 16 July 2026 — 2027 is already sold out, waiting list available
Several countries
Spread through 2027
An umbrella for several multi-day gravel events, including Italy, Scotland, California, Japan and South Africa. Half race, half festival, with only selected sections timed.
Finland, Sweden and Norway
2027 calendar published 4 November 2026
Nine gravel events across the Nordics, with distances from 40 to 180km and side events through the weekend. Run by the same team behind the Lahti European championships. The series has gradually expanded into Norway.
Entry: Calendar and registration from 4 November 2026
Norway — six races
2027 season, calendar not yet published
Six Norwegian gravel races gathered into one series with a points standing. Each race has its own character and landscape. The 2026 season has finished and the organiser has signalled the 2027 calendar.
Emporia, Kansas, USA
3–6 June 2027 (race day 5 June)
The best-known gravel race in the world, with distances up to 350 miles. Places are allocated by lottery, so entry is its own exercise. Flat on paper, but notorious for gravel that destroys tyres.
Entry: Lottery opens 1 November 2026
Girona and the Catalan Pyrenees, Spain
13–14 June 2027
800km self-supported through the Catalan Pyrenees. For riders who have moved from racing into bikepacking and want something harder than the Traka.
Maasai Mara and Loita, Kenya
15–18 June 2027
New format from 2027: it becomes a team race. Teams of three or four ride four stages, and the team's time is taken from the third rider across the line. Around 650km and 8,000m on the Leopard course. Gravel roads, cattle tracks and wildlife trails through the Maasai Mara.
Lahti, Finland
30 July–1 August 2027
The fifth European gravel championships and the first in the Nordics. Lahti's hardpack gravel is already well known from the Nordic Gravel Series. The race doubles as a UCI Gravel World Series round, so non-Europeans can also start. This is the closest major international gravel race Norwegian riders will get.
Entry: Registration opens 28 October 2026
Málaga, Andalusia, Spain
21 August 2027
Ultra-distance racing across the Iberian peninsula, self-supported and without stages. One of the longest gravel events in Europe.
Châtel – Portes du Soleil, France
26–27 August 2027
The gravel worlds open the first week of the UCI Cycling World Championships in Haute-Savoie. Qualification runs through the UCI Gravel World Series, which spans October to September.
Lillehammer area, Norway
Saturday 28 August 2027
The gravel edition of Birken, run on the same day as Birkebeinerrittet over 100 and 200km. GravelBirken 200 starts from the Birkebeineren ski stadium early in the morning. Results here count towards Birken wave allocation.
Worldwide
October 2026 to September 2027
The qualifying series for the gravel world championships, with over 30 races worldwide. Top placings in your age group earn a start in the worlds. The only route into Châtel for amateurs.
Stellenbosch to Knysna, South Africa
October 2027
Nine days, 740km and 10,000m of climbing along the Garden Route, guided and fully supported. Nights in farm stays, game parks and tree-top cabins. Many use it as a run-in to Gravel Burn, since it finishes where that race starts.
Granada, Andalusia, Spain
2027 date not announced — organiser says "information coming soon"
Self-supported ultra through Europe's only desert at Tabernas and up into the Sierra Nevada. No support, no stages — you ride until you are done. A completely different discipline from the stage races.
Great Karoo, Eastern Cape, South Africa
2027 dates not announced (2026: 25–31 October)
Seven days and around 750km across South African semi-desert, from coastal forest into the Karoo. Founded by Kevin Vermaak of Cape Epic, and already a full-service stage race with an international pro field. The heat and seven consecutive days separate the curious from the prepared.
No races match that selection.
A green date is confirmed by the organiser. A yellow date is our estimate based on last year's event and must be checked before you book anything. Missing a race, or spotted a change? Let us know →
