Applications to ride Taunus Bikepacking No. 9 are open

The ninth edition of Taunus Bikepacking will start on June 14, 2026. The application window is open until December 14, 2025. If you’re interested in joining us at the start line in summer, there’s no need to hurry – we don’t rate applications by how fast they come in. Everybody that puts in their application until December 14 has an equal chance through the ballot system.

You’ll find all the important information regarding the route, key dates and location, cost, spirit of the event and answers to frequently asked questions in the provisional Rider Manual.

Please make sure to read the Rider Manual before putting in your application. If you have open questions that are not yet covered in the Rider Manual, you can ask via [email protected]

If you’d rather contribute to the event by helping us out, you can apply as volunteer starting from December 15. There’ll be a separate process for this. Watch out for our next newsletter or keep an eye on social media and our website to stay up to date.
