Grand Bikepacking Journeys

Riding iconic routes around the world

Out Now – Exclusive UK promotion with Sidetracked
Providing independence, a sense of reward and a closeness to nature, cycling offers one of the best modes of exploration. With more people packing their panniers each year, Grand Bikepacking Journeys compiles the most iconic routes that any long distance cyclist aims to complete. In this follow-up to the hugely successful Bikepacking, cyclist-extraordinaire Stefan Amato proposes global must-ride itineraries: the Iditarod across Alaska, the Trans-Pyrenees between France and Spain, the Ruta Austral in Patagonia, and many more. Describing the history and geography of each route along with hidden gems, Stefan gives handy tips on planning, equipment, and tackling the unique challenges discovered along the way. This book will inspire readers of all levels to get on their bike, whilst providing obsessed pedallers with something to aim for too.

Stefan Amato is a British based cyclist and founder of Pannier.cc, a hub for adventure cycling. He has been curating tours since 2012. When he’s not away, Stefan rides in his local Peak District National Park or dreams up his next trip over a map. This is his second book with gestalten after Bikepacking, published in 2021.
