Kansas Gravel Cycling

The gravel scene in Kansas is everything you’re looking for – a top destination for gravel enthusiasts of all kinds. You’ll enjoy the experience and the environment on our abundance of low-traffic gravel roads and scenic rolling hills. Gravel, all-road, or mixed terrain. Level routes or challenging hills. Short sight-seeing excursions or exhausting multi-day events. Cyclists find their favorite opportunities here!

Popular grassroots races like Unbound Gravel have earned Kansas international gravel-grinding fame. Most of today’s well-known Kansas events started as small-scale affairs with low to no entry fees. That welcoming, laid-back attitude continues … with great after-parties! Pedal under summer moonlight with hundreds of fellow gravel enthusiasts in Emporia’s annual Lunar Kanza ride. Other notable events include Marysville's Pony Express Gravel Dash, Pratt's Open Range Gravel, Wichita's Rage Against the Chainring series, and the Cannonball 550 in Emporia.

Whether you’re new to gravel, or a veteran grinder, we have the information you need to plan a great ride. Share your ride with us at #ToTheStarsKS!
