MTB Ameland
MTB Ameland is one of the most unique mountain bike events in the Netherlands. You cycle across the rugged island landscape, over beaches, through the dunes and along forests and paths that are normally inaccessible. This sporting event attracts avid mountain bikers, recreational athletes and spectators who love action and nature.
Unique route across beaches and dunes
The MTB Ameland route is what makes this event so special. You ride across wide beaches, narrow dune paths and through the wooded area of the island. The wind, sand and varying terrain make every kilometre challenging. That is precisely what makes MTB Ameland a real experience.
For avid and recreational mountain bikers
MTB Ameland is accessible to different levels. There are several distances, so you can choose what suits you best. Whether you are looking for a sporting challenge or mainly want to enjoy the landscape, the event is all about cycling together and pushing your limits in a relaxed island atmosphere.
Atmosphere and island experience
Spectators line the route to cheer on the participants. The combination of sport, nature and the island atmosphere creates a special atmosphere. After the finish, there is a relaxed conviviality in which participants exchange experiences and reminisce about their performance.
