Registration Now Open For 2nd Annual Arkansas Graveler

Registration is now open for the 2nd Annual Arkansas Graveler, an epic five-day gravel ride through some of Arkansas’s most rugged landscape. This year’s ride is set for Jun 3-7.

• The Legend of Boggy Creek: The inaugural Graveler traversed the rugged Ozark Highlands of Arkansas. Rather than a race, this cycling event includes stops with live music, community activation, culinary experiences, and more. The tradition continues this year with the all-new “Bigfoot” route through the moody forests of the Ouachitas—paying homage to the long history of Bigfoot sightings in the Natural State.

• Tear Up Some Gravel: The five-day, 200+ mile ride will take participants through host cities like Mena, Glenwood, Hot Springs, Morrilton, and Heber Springs. If five days sounds a little intense, there’s also a two-day Half-Grav Challenge.

Check out the 2024 routes HERE.
