The Yamaha Ténéré Trek is a four‑day, community‑focused adventure rally held at Tamarack Resort in Donnelly, Idaho, August 6–9, 2026. Designed exclusively for Yamaha adventure and dual‑sport motorcycle owners, the event brings together up to 200 riders for scenic backcountry routes, skills training, product demos, evening activities and a full weekend of camaraderie in the heart of the Payette National Forest.

Participants will explore a curated mix of mountain backroads, forest trails, gravel passes and cliff‑side river overlooks throughout the region. GPX tracks for multiple daily routes will be provided at the start of the event, with options ranging from beginner‑friendly gravel loops to more advanced terrain for experienced riders. A GPS device and SOS satellite communicator are required to participate.

The Ténéré Trek features on‑site riding seminars and ADV skills training led by legendary off-road racer Jimmy Lewis, giving riders the opportunity to refine technique and build confidence in real mountain conditions. Yamaha will also host demo rides of the full Ténéré 700 lineup, including the new World Raid model just making it’s way to the U.S., along with product displays from supporting brands and industry vendors.

Evenings at Tamarack Resort include group dinners, entertainment, raffles, and additional activities. Lodging options range from resort rooms and cottages to nearby campgrounds and group yurts, with Yamaha securing discounted rates for attendees. Registration includes three hosted dinners, commemorative merchandise and access to all riding routes and activities.

Participation is limited to Yamaha adventure motorcycle owners with 250cc and larger models recommended, and space is expected to fill quickly.
