2026 Bolero UEC Gravel European Championships
On Sunday 30 August 2026, Houffalize will host the 2026 Bolero UEC Gravel European Championships.
The setting lies deep in the heart of the Belgian Ardennes, in and around Houffalize, a
picturesque town hidden among green hills along the winding Ourthe river. Here, where endless forests, rolling landscapes and pure nature meet, riders will face a challenge they will never forget.
Houffalize is more than just a host town, it is a true sanctuary of gravel cycling. Since 2021, Houffa Gravel has been organised here annually and has grown into a regular qualifying event for the UCI Gravel World Championships.
In 2026, Houffa Gravel will make way, exceptionally, for an even bigger story: the 2026 Bolero UEC Gravel European Championships.
The 2026 UEC Gravel European Championships are also part of the Gravelking UCI Gravel World Series. As a result, the event also serves as a qualifying race for the 2026 UCI Gravel World Championships, which will take place on 10 and 11 October in Nannup (Australia).
