KTM Adventure Rally Ready To Hit South Dakota For 2024

An epic weekend with KTM and fellow ADV riders in the Mount Rushmore State.

Published on 05.20.2024

The KTM Adventure Rider Rally is returning to the U.S. this October for an adrenaline-seeking weekend in Deadwood, South Dakota. Expect exceptional adventure riding with a series of challenges and the opportunity to demo select models from KTM’s current street and dual-sport ranges. 

Based out of The Lodge at Deadwood, riding will largely consist of extensive double-track trails, highlighted by red dirt/clay with a selection of rocky sections to add to the challenge along the way. The region offers riders seemingly endless, snaking turns, mountain climbs and valleys plus Mount Rushmore, Devils Tower, Spearfish Canyon, and the famous Black Hills are just some of the landmarks you’ll be able to tackle throughout the event.

Routes inclusive of designated loops will be suitable for all skill levels, supported by KTM with common places for lunch/gas. The format will once again promote a collective environment for riders to enjoy together, and in the interest of safety and to maximize the enjoyment for participants, adventurers will be placed in groups of 2-4 people each day.
