Oncogravel 2026 took place on Saturday 7 November, starting and finishing in Palamós. The Marina Palamós team was there once again and together we covered 1,280.76 km. Every one of them counted: €5 per kilometre for Fundació Kàlida, which makes €6,403.80 in total.

The fourth edition of this charity gravel and mountain bike event, promoted by Fundació Oncolliga Girona, was the largest so far. It brought together 119 teams, 25% more than last year.

Each team is made up of four to six riders. The event is ridden as a relay along tracks and trails in the Baix Empordà, the Gironès and La Selva. In addition, there are two routes: a long one of 214 km and a short one of around 105 km.

Two foundations, one cause

Fundació Oncolliga Girona is a non-profit organisation that supports people with cancer and their families in the province of Girona. It uses the funds raised for free services such as psychological care and physiotherapy at home.

For its part, Fundació Kàlida offers free, ongoing and holistic support to people with cancer, their families and their carers. Marina Palamós has worked with the foundation for years. As a result, the donation per kilometre is added to the amount raised by the event. How we work with the foundation throughout the year is explained in our article on the €11,600 donated to Fundació Kàlida.

Finally, we thank the organisers, the volunteers and every team that made a record edition possible. Thanks also go to everyone who rode in our colours. See you at the next edition.
