PEDALS AND TRAILS 2026

Pedals and Trails is back!!! Get ready for new peaks, a new route, and the same thrilling challenge! This self-supported event will push you to bike, hike, or run to every destination, using your GPS device to navigate the way. Each edition is one-of-a-kind, and the route will never be repeated – so be ready for a true adventure!

1. Stamp their passport at each peak destination as proof of reaching it.
2. Take a mandatory selfie at the top of each peak as additional proof.
