Newly AddedBikepacking
Overview
Bikepacking is the scruffy, adventurous cousin of road touring. You strap lightweight bags to your bike, leave the panniers and the tarmac behind, and ride off-road into places worth waking up in. Part cycling, part camping, all freedom.
You do not need to be an athlete, just comfortable on a bike and happy to be self-sufficient for a bit. Routes range from a gentle overnighter to multi-day backcountry trips, and you build up as your confidence and kit grow.
The guides on adventuro run bikepacking trips and skills sessions, sorting routes, kit and the knack of packing light. Half the skill is leaving things at home, the other half is being smug that you did.
