MEGRE Gravel

MEGRE Gravel describes itself as a race with a mission to represent the gravel culture of its region, and it has become one of the Baltic fixtures of the Gravel Earth Series, putting professionals and local riders on the same Lithuanian start line.

Its base is Anykščiai, a small resort town the organisers call one of the most beautiful corners of the country, with the start at the Dainuvos Adventure Valley. The routes are redrawn every year, and the 2026 edition was decided on the gravel roads through the forests around the town.

The longest distance is a head-to-head race with its own women's start, while the shorter mass starts keep things open to every level. The organisers insist that taking part matters more than winning, and the weekend comes with feed stations, plenty of photographers and an afterparty.
