A unique challenge has been launched by Gabriel, an Algerian student in Paris: cycling from Copenhagen to Algiers. This 6000 km journey through 11 countries is not only a personal adventure, but also a humanitarian mission to fund a day of rescue at sea for the Ocean Viking, the ship of the SOS MÉDITERRANÉE association.
The choice of Copenhagen as a starting point is not random. This city is known for its commitment to cycling culture and represents the ideal beginning for Gabriel’s marathon.
Gabriel will pass through varied landscapes, from historic cities to picturesque countryside, to imposing mountains. Each stage will be an opportunity to discover the cultural and natural richness of Europe. And he will end with the crossing of the Mediterranean Sea, which is a symbol of connection between peoples and cultures. Gabriel will highlight this diversity through his journey.

A marathon for a good cause: supporting SOS MÉDITERRANÉE
Gabriel’s goal is to fund a day of sea rescue for the Ocean Viking. Each kilometer traveled will contribute to supporting the efforts of the association in rescuing lives in peril in the Mediterranean.
Behind Gabriel is a support team, including videographers and musicians, who contribute to documenting and sharing his story, inspiring others to take part in humanitarian causes.
Gabriel invites everyone to follow his journey and contribute to the cause of SOS MÉDITERRANÉE. His journey is a powerful reminder that endurance and determination can lead to significant changes.
