The last race in 2025 of the UCI Gravel World Series will take place in Portugal’s Alentejo region. Around 800 riders from 29 countries have signed up, including top athletes from Spain, Portugal, and other parts of Europe.
The main course is a single 119 km loop starting in the charming town of Ourique, with 2100 meters of climbing. Older age groups will ride a shorter 84 km route with 1500 meters of elevation.
The race begins with a northern loop, passing near the finish after 25 km, then heads south. About 76% of the route is off-road. The terrain is rolling, with five climbs between 1–2 km long and gradients of 4–7%. The final kilometer is uphill to the finish line.
