About the Event

Experience the breathtaking beauty of Southern Vermont during the Grafton Gran Fondo. This autumn celebration takes you through some of the region's most inspiring landscapes as fall foliage reaches its peak. The event kicks off with a hearty breakfast and registration at 6:00 AM, setting the stage for an exhilarating day ahead.
The journey begins in the charming village of Grafton, home to the picturesque Grafton Trails and Outdoor Center. This four-season outdoor recreation hub serves as both your starting point and finish line, offering a perfect blend of natural beauty and modern amenities.
Five distinct rides cater to various skill levels and preferences:
- The Estremo route challenges seasoned cyclists with its demanding terrain.
- For those seeking a more relaxed pace, the Gran route offers scenic views without the same intensity.
On-course support is provided by dedicated SAG vehicles ensuring you always have assistance nearby. Fully stocked rest stops along the way offer refreshing breaks to fuel your ride and enjoy the stunning fall scenery. After your adventure, indulge in complimentary homemade meals at Grafton Trails and Outdoor Center – a rustic cabin awaits, ready to welcome weary riders.
While this event is not timed or competitive, it promises an enriching experience for all participants. The proceeds from this celebration support local education initiatives, specifically benefiting the Grafton Elementary School.
Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or just looking to explore Vermont's fall magic, the Grafton Gran Fondo offers something special. Lace up your shoes and ride the peak with us!
