New gravel stage race in the Serra Gaúcha; the website mentions no earlier editions, making 2027 the first documented running. The Ultimate format covers 370.3 km and 6,302 m of climbing over four stages, from Canela via São Francisco de Paula, Gramado and Nova Petrópolis back to Canela, about 75% on unpaved roads through araucaria forests and canyon country; the Short format covers only the last two stages (169.3 km). The field is capped at 150 places (100 Ultimate, 50 Short), riders navigate themselves by GPS and the organiser transports luggage. Alongside the timed Gravel Race there is the untimed “Legends Experience”, which is also open to MTB and e-bikes.
