Welcome to our Gravel Camps

Michael and Dimitris are excited to welcome you to Greece at the beautiful Costa Navarino. We organize the Gravel Camps in two strength classes, ensuring that our guests neither feel under- nor over-challenged. You can decide on-site which pace and distances suit you best.

Our camp takes place in the surroundings of the small village of Gialova, an excellent starting point for cycling and gravel tours. Gialova is known for its breathtaking nature, quiet beaches, and the warm hospitality of the locals.

Participants are limited to 24 per camp.
