The KTM Adventure Riders Rally is turning 21, and it's time to get ready for some thrilling off-road action! This year's event, taking place from September 17-19, 2026, at the Silver Mountain Resort in Kellogg, Idaho, promises an unforgettable experience for adventure enthusiasts. With only 200 spots available, you'll need to act fast to secure your place. KTM is providing GPS tracks for navigation, but the routes are self-guided, so be prepared to explore and navigate your way through the trails.
One of the great things about this rally is its inclusivity. You don't need to own a KTM motorcycle to participate; any street-legal motorcycle will do. And if you're not in the mood to bring your own ride, KTM has partnered with Colorado Motorcycle Adventures to offer bike rental packages. This flexibility ensures that anyone with a passion for adventure can join in on the fun.
The event registration fee is $600 plus a processing fee, and there's also a meal-only package available for non-participants. While these fees cover the event itself, keep in mind that additional costs may arise for lodging, permits, and motorcycle rentals. Be sure to check out the official event registration page (https://www.eventcreate.com/e/ktmadventurerally) for all the details you need.
But wait, there's more! If you're dreaming of an international KTM adventure, mark your calendars for the 2026 KTM New Zealand Adventure Rallye. This event, scheduled for December 7-12, 2026, will take place in the stunning landscapes of New Zealand. However, be prepared for a more exclusive experience as only 120 riders will be accepted. KTM will provide all the necessary support, including guides, luggage assistance, tech support, and even medic and tire support.
The cost for this international adventure is $2,195 NZD, which converts to approximately $1,263.77 USD. If you're keen on joining, make sure to register soon, as spaces are limited.
