The event for advanced and experienced cyclists, MMXXIV Amber Road Bikepacking Race is a self-sufficient bikerafting race along Alpine Cols, great European rivers, Roman roads and the wilderness of ancient Barbaricum. The route is marked out along the ancient Amber Road and must be covered by bike and packraft.
The race recreates the route taken by the Romans, Celts and Goths to obtain amber on the Baltic coast – the legendary gold of the north. This is the route that ancient merchants and travelers could have taken to reach the area of today’s Gdańsk from Roman Aquileia. It was sometimes easier to cross the endless forests of today’s Poland by rafting down rivers. To do as the Romans do, you will sail 280km by packraft.
