Sweden · 4 days · From SEK 12500 (indicative)
Each day follows the same shape: a long gravel ride with the guides, an escort car in support, then back to camp for food and recovery. You cover 80–110 km a day, and the routes change daily — quiet countryside lanes, deep forest tracks and rolling vistas across Småland. The guides are local and know the roads, and the group rides at a pace that works for everyone on the day.
Recovery is built into the programme rather than left to chance. After the ride there are nutritious meals, dips in the lake, canoeing, a sauna and ice baths. The operator's own framing is that this is what lets you perform better the next day, and the schedule is arranged around it.
What separates this from a generic cycling holiday is the guiding and the support. Four guided rides with experienced local guides, an escort car during the tours and luggage transport are all part of the package, so you are not navigating or carrying your own kit between stops.
The camp sits in the forests and lake landscapes of Småland, near Agunnaryd. The setting is deliberately quiet — the operator describes it as leaving everyday life behind for great gravel, good company and the rhythm of cycling in nature.
This is pitched at riders who like long days in the saddle and want to combine challenging cycling with proper recovery. The trip is graded Advanced. You can ride your own bike or add a KONA Dew Hybrid rental bike to your booking for SEK 725.
