In 2026, APL is changing — but only to fit you even better.
Instead of three formats, the Gravel and Discovery routes are merging into one.
So this year we have two formats — one for enduro riders, and one for adventure seekers:

Traditional APL

Off-road classics: sand, gravel, quarries, ruts, border tracks, and roads that demand real character from you.
This is the format for those who want to ride as close to the Lithuanian border as possible — with zero compromises.

Gravel–Discovery APL

A lighter, freer, more “let’s stop and take a look” kind of adventure.
More gravel, fewer technical challenges, more views, stories, stops, and discoveries, and keeps your heavy bike in pristine condition (almost).
Perfect for beginners and for anyone who wants to experience APL at a more relaxed pace — even with a passenger.

All APL formats are also available as 1/2 APL.

Only have three days?
Half of APL still gives you the full taste of adventure.

What awaits you at APL 2026?

2000 km of gravel, forests, wild panoramas, and places most people never get to see.
Camps, where the smoke comes from campfires and conversations — and where everyone helps you fix your bike so you somehow make it to the finish.
Teams that come together here and become your APL family.
Mornings when you roll out from one edge of Lithuania — and evenings when you’re already at the opposite side.
– The thrill of the start line and that horn at the finish you’ll never forget.

APL is not a race.
APL is freedom.
A journey that changes you — every single time.

Teams

All participants will be divided into groups of 4–6 riders. In the registration form, each participant must indicate which role they would like to take on or are capable of performing:

“Medic” – must know how to dress a wound, provide basic first aid, and assist an injured person.
“Mechanic” – understands motorcycle construction and is able to diagnose or repair minor mechanical issues.
“Pathfinder” – guides the team along the route, sets the pace, coordinates team movement, and manages all team-related questions that arise during the trip.

If you are joining as a self-formed team, all team members must enter the same team name during registration.

What’s Included in the Ticket Price:

1. Registration - Admission to the APL 2025 event and all administrative handling.
2. Campsite fees - Accommodation in designated campsites, including a tent spot and individual participant fee at each location.
3. Breakfast and dinner - Daily breakfast and dinner provided at all campsites throughout the event.
4. Border zone access permit - Official permission from the Lithuanian State Border Guard Service to enter and travel through the border zone.

6. Official APL 2026 merchandise - Event T-shirt, stickers, and—upon completing the full route—an official diploma/medal.
7. Transport of personal belongings - Transportation of personal items (tent, sleeping bag, spare parts, etc.) by support van.
