Summer is finally at the doorstep, and many of us are looking to make it the best one yet by planning the best bikepacking adventures. If you're looking for some UK inspiration, check out our recent feature on the best bikepacking routes in Scotland. However, if you don't fancy taking on the "variable' Scottish weather or the infamous midgie, then heading further afield with your gravel bike may be on your radar.
We recently featured The Maremma Challenge, a fantastic 500km bikepacking route in the hidden Tuscan region of Maremma, Italy. As a fan of all things Italian, we were keen to discover other exciting routes and encountered the newly launched Alpine Gravel Project. It has had us hunting out our passports and getting our best gravel bikes ready for some epic Italian gravel.
