NorthCape4000

1 continent, 10 countries, over 4300 km self supported with a legendary destination, the Arctic Circle! This is the NorthCape4000, the Ultracycling Bike Adventure.

Now in its third edition, the organisers have worked hard to bring you the most exciting bikepacking event in the world. Get ready to launch yourself into the most challenging event on two wheels ever seen.

Fight the distance or enjoy the landscapes, or both. There is no time limit, no support, just a few rules. We’ll give you an amazing track and four checkpoints that you must reach but then the rest is up to you.

You all will start together from Turin and only you will decide whether and with whom to share your way. Furthermore, you will have complete responsibility for all the other aspects of the challenge, from the management of the stages and the place where you rest up to the bike setup and the best equipment to deal with the distance and the incredible variety of landscapes and conditions that you will encounter towards North Cape.

In the 2019 edition, you will have to follow a fixed path, which is the same for all participants and provided directly by the organization. A carefully studied track will accompany you through 10 nations and 4300 km, until you reach North Cape.

For all these reasons, in addition to the beauty of what you’ll see, the NorthCape4000 is a challenge that brings with it a wealth of experience and autonomy unparalleled in the bikepacking world.

So, for whatever reason you decide to be at the start on July 28, we guarantee that you will return more aware and mature, with many unforgettable stories and experiences.
