Time for Gravel Adventures in the Tuchola Forest
We’re uncovering another polish must-ride destination for gravel biking! This time, we're heading to the Tuchola Forest, known for its fragrant pine woods, lakes, and rivers weaving through the landscape.
Our basecamp will be in a village with a promising name—Zarośla (which means "Thickets" in Polish).
Will there be fast gravel highways? Absolutely! Forest and gravel trails, both easier and more technical? You bet! Coffee breaks, ice cream, waffles? Of course!

TRANSPORT
Getting to the base is on your own – the easiest way to reach Zarośla is by car. Alternatively, you can take a train with a transfer in Bydgoszcz.
For an additional 200 PLN, we offer transport to and from Warsaw by NGE van (including your bike and luggage, of course). The van departs from our Clubhouse at Puławska 134 in Warsaw on Friday at 4:00 PM and returns to Warsaw on Sunday around 9:00 PM.
ACCOMMODATION
We’ll be staying in a holiday resort, in cottages equipped with a bathroom and kitchen. Twin rooms. We’ll also have access to a fire pit, which we’ll definitely put to good use on Friday evening after arrival. The base opens on Friday at 8:00 PM.
ROUTES
Once again, we’ve prepared two route options per day—allowing us to split into two groups based on pace and skill level so that everyone can find their perfect ride. The routes for both groups partially overlap, ensuring that at least once a day, the entire crew meets up at the same spot for a break.
Note: We reserve the right to make adjustments to the itinerary, as long as they don’t significantly impact the distance or elevation gain.
