️ Tour Description

‍♂️ Get ready for the ultimate mountain biking adventure in Peru!
The Andes Challenge: Mountain Biking from Sky to Jungle is a one-of-a-kind experience, designed for cyclists who crave speed, excitement, and breathtaking landscapes. Starting at 4500m in the Andes and descending to 1500m in the Amazon jungle, this tour will take you through various ecosystems, technical trails, and stunning natural scenery.

We begin at Abra Yanamayo, a high-altitude mountain pass surrounded by snow-capped peaks, where you will embark on an adrenaline-filled technical descent with rocky terrain, sharp curves, and challenging paths. As we descend, the landscape transforms into cloud forests and later into tropical jungle, where warm temperatures replace the Andean cold.

This is not just about mountain biking – it’s a full immersion into nature, where you’ll witness condors, llamas, alpacas, toucans, and butterflies in their natural habitat.
