Allgäu & Spätzle Ultracycling KING SIZE Road is a 753-kilometer road ultra-cycling event starting in Bad Waldsee in the Allgäu region of southern Germany, part of an event series whose name pays cheerful homage to Spätzle, the traditional egg noodle dish closely associated with the Swabian and Allgäu regions of Germany. The Allgäu is a foothill region of the Bavarian Alps known for its rolling green pastures, traditional dairy farming, and increasingly popular cycling tourism, offering road riders a mix of gently undulating countryside and more serious climbing as routes push toward the higher Alpine terrain to the south. The 'King Size' naming suggests this is the largest or most ambitious distance category within the broader Allgäu & Spätzle event series.
Bad Waldsee is a spa town in the Allgäu noted for its thermal springs and historic town center, giving the event a relaxed and characterful starting point typical of the broader Allgäu region's blend of traditional Bavarian-Swabian culture and outdoor recreation. The September timing offers stable late-summer conditions for a serious road ultra through this scenic corner of southern Germany.
