191 DAYS TO THE EVENT
The unsupported bikepacking adventure of Baltic Bound series.
9th to 31st of July, 2025
About the challenge
A friend of ours, a fanatic of road cycling, wondered why there was nothing beyond Hydra (first event of Epas kind), why there wasn't something made specifically for road cyclists. Upon opening a map and seeing a blue blob in the Baltic region—that is the Baltic Sea—we decided to organize an adventure that would encircle the Baltic Sea. We thought it would be interesting to attempt something even grander than what we had done before. The countries bound by the Baltic Sea gave rise to the name - Baltic Bound. Baltic Bound does not prescribe a specific route. Participants are responsible for making their own way to the checkpoints. However, the general itinerary follows a clockwise direction starting in Lithuania, where it all begins. Participants do cycle towards Western Europe, crossing Poland and then turning North via Germany and Denmark. Continuing through Sweden, participants eventually reach the northernmost point of the Baltic Sea, where the Finnish border meets the Swedish border. Later, cyclists journey south towards the Baltic States—Estonia, Latvia, and finally the finish line back in Lithuania.
