KTM’s Adventure Rallye marks 10 years with five days and 1500km of Victorian adventure

KTM Australia’s Adventure Rallye will notch up a decade of orange adventure in 2027, with the landmark 10th edition heading to southwest Victoria for five days and around 1500km of riding.

Running from 14-19 March, the VIC Ranges Rallye will start and finish in Ballarat, with an opening loop around the historic gold-rush city before heading west to Halls Gap and the Grampians. From there, riders will turn south for the coast, with overnight stops at Port Campbell and Lorne before the route swings back to Ballarat.

It promises a pretty spectacular lap of Victoria, taking in everything from the Grampians and Great Dividing Range to the Southern Ocean coastline and towering forests of the Otways.

As ever, this isn’t intended to be a race; the Rallye formula is about getting KTM Adventure owners out into the bush and giving them the support to tackle a multi-day ride without having to organise the logistical circus themselves.

There’s also a significant change for the 10th running. For the first time, KTM is offering accommodation packages as part of registration, with six nights available from $850 per rider. Solo and shared options will be offered, with accommodation located within walking distance of each night’s bivouac.

The ride itself costs $2350 for five days of riding, support services, nightly dinners, event photography and video, a goody bag and the opportunity to ride alongside KTM special guests. The 10th edition will be limited to 130 riders and remains exclusively open to eligible KTM Adventure models. Registrations are open now via ktm.com/en-au
