Gravel rides, which combine asphalt, gravel and dirt, have become extremely popular in recent years. Races or recreational rides can vary in distance, and trails range from well-trodden paths to more demanding, uneven terrain. Gravel is an ideal combination of mountain and road cycling, and it takes you off the main roads into nature, but without the need to use excessive equipment. Gravel tracks in Bjelovar-Bilogora County are available throughout the year, and the ones in Bilogora – BILOgravel – which are well marked, are particularly notable. You can walk the paths used for the NATURAgravel and DAgravel challenges accompanied by a guide. If you want to explore the nature of this region by bike, we recommend that you contact one of the agencies. Agencies that deal with the organization of gravel tours can also help with booking accommodation and introduce you to the rich wine and gastronomic offer of the county. Riding along the gravel roads, you can stop at local wineries located along the Bilogora wine road, where you will taste top wines specific to this area. You will find light and aromatic wines here, perfect for relaxing after an active day on the bike.
In the restaurants located near the trails, you can enjoy authentic local cuisine – from traditional Bilogora dishes to modern culinary specialties. The combination of cycling and eno-gastronomic adventure turns the trip into a unique experience. If it’s true what they say – that love goes through the stomach – then this love is even greater when the body is tired after healthy physical activity. Our professional guides take extra care of all the details, including bike rental and accommodation, so you can enjoy every part of your trip.
