A little gravel getaway in Southern Arizona.
Tucked into the rolling grasslands of Southern Arizona, Patagonia is a gravel cyclist's playground. Think quiet dirt roads, wide-open views, rugged mountains, and miles of riding that make you forget what day it is.
We're bringing Grvl Camp back to its roots with a small-group women's getaway built around great rides, home-cooked meals, and plenty of time to unwind. Expect challenging gravel, beautiful scenery, and the kind of camaraderie that makes camp feel like a getaway with friends.

Patagonia, Arizona
Tucked into the high-desert grasslands of Southern Arizona, Patagonia is a small town with a big personality. Surrounded by the Santa Rita and Patagonia Mountains, it's a gateway to some of the region's most scenic gravel riding.
Beyond the bike, you'll find a laid-back community with local cafés, eclectic shops, and plenty of small-town charm. It's the kind of place where you can slow down, grab a coffee, and settle into the rhythm of camp.

Patagonia is home to some of Southern Arizona's best gravel, with quiet ranch roads, rolling grasslands, rugged climbs, and sweeping mountain views. Expect a mix of smooth, fast dirt roads and rougher, more demanding terrain, with plenty of climbing along the way.
Our rides are designed for intermediate to experienced gravel cyclists who are comfortable spending several hours in the saddle. We'll keep a steady group pace, with opportunities to regroup, take photos, and enjoy the scenery along the way.
