Some roads will make you question why you started.
Others will remind you exactly why you keep going.

The Anatolian Mountain Race is a mix of both — tough climbs, endless gravel, and quiet moments that make it all worth it.

Looking Ahead to a Stronger Race in Spring 2026

After listening to feedback and in light of the challenges that this season has presented for many riders, we have decided to postpone the first edition of the Anatolian Mountain Race to 15-24 May 2026.

This shift allows us to create the best possible experience — giving athletes more time to prepare and recover, easing logistical demands, and bringing everyone together in a season full of renewal and energy. We’re confident this change will set the stage for a race that’s not only better organized, but more inspiring for all who take part.

This decision was not made lightly. From the beginning, our goal has been to create an unforgettable race — one that not only showcases the breathtaking beauty and raw spirit of the Anatolian mountains, but also respects the dedication and preparation that such a demanding event requires.

Together, we’re building something special. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to sharing the race with you in May 2026.

Registrations will remain open until December 18th.
