What Happened
RIDE KTM, originally launched as KTM Adventure Tours at the end of the 20th century, has evolved over nearly 35 years into a comprehensive international platform for motorcycle experiences. The program aims to create a portal where riders can take their first meters on a KTM or deepen their connection with the brand, offering a versatile menu of routes and challenges across the world.
KTM Adventure Tours launched, the precursor to RIDE KTM.
RIDE KTM now includes four areas—Tours, Training, Track, and Rental—with expanded offerings and new destinations.
The TOURS area offers enduro, adventure, and exploration rides in majestic regions from America to Africa and Europe, led by guides including Alfie Cox, Dennis Schroeter, and Gilles Salvador. Each month features special gatherings with different pricing and logistics, easily bookable via the website.
The FORMACIÓN (Training) area provides on- and off-road riding courses to help riders improve skills, build confidence, and correct bad habits. Programs are taught by expert instructors in controlled environments, blending fun with practical learning.
The CIRCUITO (Track) area, dubbed KTM's backyard, lets riders experience high-speed laps on premier circuits with the new KTM RC R Cup. Available spots remain for the 2026 calendar, appealing to those dreaming of racing.
The ALQUILER (Rental) area, located at the KTM Motohall in Mattighofen, offers a fleet of motorcycles for rent from April to October. Rentals range from four-hour outings combined with a museum visit to multi-day adventures, with protective gear available for a spontaneous KTM experience.
