The 2026 UCI Gravel World Championships will be held 10 and 11 October 2026 in Nannup, Western Australia.[1] It will be the fifth edition of the championships. The course is based on the SEVEN gravel race, first held in 2018, which has been featured in every edition of the UCI Gravel World Series.[2]
Course
[edit]
The course is 123.1 kilometres (76.5 mi) for the women's race and 140.7 kilometres (87.4 mi) for the men's race, starting and ending in the town of Nannup. Over 80% of the course is on gravel, with short sections of asphalt throughout. Both courses have over 3,000 metres (9,800 ft) of elevation gain and many short, steep climbs, with the race organizers comparing the race style to Liège-Bastogne-Liège, a classic cycle race in Belgium known to favor puncheurs.[2]
