Pajot Gravel Fondo - up and down through the undulating land of Bruegel
On Saturday, September 14, three weeks before the Gravel World Championship between Halle and Leuven, the Pajot Gravel Fondo serves as the last, ultimate test for your legs.
The Pajot Gravel Fondo is the fourth and final event of the Bolero Gravel Series. This means that in Sint-Pieters-Leeuw, we will honor not only the day’s winners but also the overall winners.
During the Pajot Gravel Fondo, you will get to know all the facets of the wonderful Pajottenland, with as many off-road paths as possible as the common thread. The absolute beauty of this region will undoubtedly make your gravel heart beat faster. The mapped-out route leads you from one beautiful view to another!
You have the choice of three different distances, 115 km, 90 km, or 65 km, starting and finishing in the shadow of the beautiful castle of the Coloma estate in Sint-Pieters-Leeuw.

Van grindpaden en bospaden tot landelijke wegen: voor alle fietsers en wandelaars, met of zonder ervaring … hier vind je de perfecte route.
En wie weet brengt die route je wel langsheen park Groenenberg dat samen met het tegenovergelegen park van Gaasbeek voor een van de grootste groene longen van Vlaams-Brabant zorgt. Het is een heuse oase van rust en stilte die je ook terugvindt in het Colomapark. In dit 15 hectare grote park vind je het kasteel van Coloma en een prachtige rozentuin waar jaarlijks meer dan 3.000 verschillende soorten rozen bloeien, samen goed voor zo’n 300.000 rozen. Ondertussen is deze rozentuin één van de grootste en belangrijkste in Europa en vind je er ieder jaar het fantastische Rozenfestival terug.
Dat Sint-Pieters-Leeuw van aanpakken weet, merk je trouwens ook aan de topevenementen en -activiteiten die jaarlijks op de agenda staan. Denk aan het straattheaterfestival StraPatZen, de traditionele trekpaardendag, Vlaanderen Feest, Muzikale Brouwels, de jaarmarkt en nu dus ook Pajot Gravel: puur genieten voor het hele gezin.
