NGE On Our Own Route Around the Tatra Mountains
We present our custom variation of the Around the Tatra Mountains Trail – a more gravel-focused version that, in our opinion, is better than the official routes (yes, we’ve even ridden the official “gravel” version).
Get ready for a three-day adventure around Poland’s highest mountains, filled with breathtaking views, great food, and – as always – the atmosphere of a gravel adventure!
We’ll stay in hotels with breakfast included, and luggage transport will be handled by a technical vehicle. All you need to do is ride light and enjoy the adventure.
If this sounds like a great plan for a long weekend, we warmly invite you to join us!

TRANSPORT
Getting to the meeting point is your own responsibility – the easiest way to reach Nowy Targ is by car or train. For an additional fee of 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 on Puławska 134 on Friday at 5:00 AM and returns on Sunday around 9:00 PM.
We’ll meet with others in Nowy Targ on Friday arount 10:00 AM and head straight to the route.
ACCOMMODATION
On the route, we have 2 overnight stays, both in hotels with breakfast included. Rooms accommodate 2-4 people, each with its own bathroom. At both accommodations, for an extra fee, we will also have access to a sauna and jacuzzi.
THE ROUTE
We’re riding our own custom route, more gravel-oriented than the official versions. Technically, it will be easy, with gravel sections making up about 30% of the route. Along the way, we’ll face a few longer climbs (mostly on the first day), but they generally won’t be very steep. Our priority was to create as enjoyable a route as possible, so we avoid crowded spots like Liptovský Mikuláš or Lake Czorsztyn.
Note: We reserve the right to make changes to the schedule below, as long as they don’t significantly affect the distances and elevation gain.
Guides
Doma
Loves to pet doggies and eat jellies. Also rides all year round, regardless of the weather. Apparently, the only kind of cycling she does is romantic cycling. You won't find her at races or on a trainer. But don't get it wrong - she rides over a dozen thousand kilometers every year. The most emphatic part of NGE - always ready to help when needed, and won't leave you behind in the woods.
Patryk
Half human, half megaphone. The most socially active member of the team. Fueled by pizza and cookies. Regularly enjoys all aspects of cycling. Loves challenges, bikepacking, and occasionally takes on an ultra-marathon. When no one’s watching, he sneaks off to road group rides. Experienced in organizing and leading groups.
Damian
Powered by plants, a fan of steel frames and classic-looking bikes. Feels at home both leading group rides and riding solo, gathering new route ideas. Knowledgeable about photography, coffee, and the latest cycling trends. Can’t leave a dirty bike overnight.
