San Diego Gravel Routes

After getting multiple requests we finally put together a list of some of our favorite gravel routes in North County San Diego. These are all moderately difficult routes ranging from about 40-50 miles. Terrain is a mix of road, hardpack gravel, singletrack, bike path and fireroad. As such, we recommend a cross or gravel bike with tires at least 40mm in width. In most cases we’ve marked at least one water stop on course, and the dirt sections are labelled in blue. In general, these rides can take anywhere from 4-6 hours.

Lost Abbey X Gravelstoke #dirtchurch Gallery

Our very first Lost Abbey X Gravelstoke ride rolled from Bump Coffee at 8AM on Sept 2. Roughly 35 miles of mixed terrain was enjoyed by everyone who turned out for our first #dirtchurch ride. We ended at The Confessional in Cardiff by the Sea, a Lost Abbey tasting room that features delicious beers and good vibes.
