The preview

Discover the world of the Gravel Games, in exclusivity

Ahead of the official first edition of the Gravel Games, planned for spring 2027, this preview gives participants the chance to discover the world of the event in exclusivity.

For two days, Camp général de Castelnau will host the founding disciplines of the Gravel Games — Gravel Running and Gravel Cycling — on an exceptional playground, usually off-limits to the public.

The spirit: ride and run on natural terrain, embracing adventure, exploration and pushing your limits.

The programme

Two founding disciplines

Gravel Running and Gravel Cycling are the two founding disciplines of the Gravel Games. Each participant chooses to line up for one… or both, to take on the full weekend challenge.

20 km

Three races to choose from, on the camp's tracks and natural trails.

Gravel Cycling

Gravel Ride 35 km
Gravel Race 70 km
Gravel Race 105 km

A leisure ride or two race formats, depending on your ambition.

Rankings

A Men's ranking and a Women's ranking for each of the 5 events. Plus a special combined ranking for athletes who run the 20 km Gravel Running on Saturday and the 105 km Gravel Cycling race on Sunday: the two-discipline challenge.

The experience

More than a race number.

Taking part in the Gravel Games is about far more than lining up on a start line. It is two days built around the terrain, the effort and the people you share it with.

01 — The Gravel Games Village

Welcome to the playground.

For one weekend, the Camp général de Castelnau becomes the heart of the Gravel Games: welcome desk, race-number collection, starts, finishes and every moment shared in between.

02 — Welcome coffee

It starts with a coffee.

Before heading to the start, come to the village to pick up your race number and share a welcome coffee with the other participants.

03 — Starter pack

Your Gravel Games Starter Pack.

Every participant receives a Gravel Games Starter Pack when collecting their race number. What's inside will be revealed soon.

04 — Feed zones

Fuel the adventure.

Out on the terrain, the feed zones are part of the experience: a place to take on energy, catch your breath for a moment, then head back out onto the Larzac.

05 — Finisher gift

You've earned it.

Cross the finish line and leave with a Gravel Games finisher gift, designed as a keepsake from this first adventure on the Larzac.
