Peru is still a country to be explored and discover ancient trails that were built thousands of years ago. We have more than 20 years exploring and finding ancient trails that are perfect for mountain biking all over Peru. We know that there’s still a lot to be explored but we already know which and where are the best trails that will make this adventure a unique and memorable experience of a lifetime! The variety of trails in this trip is so diverse that we will be riding our bikes from 0 to 4,500 meters of elevation and in the coast as well as in the Andes Mountains and very close to the jungle.

Nowadays, Peru is being recognized as one of the best destinations for mountain biking around the world not only by the quality of the trails but also for their history and culture of thousands of years old reflected on old fortresses and a trail network of more than 20,000Km. Also in Peru we have an amazing food that it’s one of the highlights of this trip.

Peru, Paradise of Singletracks!

In this tour, we will enjoy the best that Peru has to offer for mountain biking, riding every day on a different place and also in different regions. Our first ride is in Pachacamac, near Lima, with mountains almost in front of the ocean. The next day we go to the Andes of Lima to start riding at 3,600 meters and reach the Pacific Ocean where we can take a swim after our ride! Then we fly to Cusco and we will be riding trails in Cusco, Sacred Valley and also the mountains of the Vilcanota Mountain Range reaching an elevation of 4,500 meters as the highest of the whole tour. Almost halfway of the tour, we have a day to visit Machu Picchu but if you are not interested, we can plan another bike ride!

Frequently Asked Questions

You are traveling to Peru and on the areas we are going to be riding our bikes there are no or very little options to buy spare parts for your bike. First, we suggest you make a deep clean and maintenance to your bike and check for worn parts such as chain, brake pads, cables and housings. Make sure everything is working properly, especially your brakes. Bring also new tires. We suggest Maxxis High Rollers 2.30/2.35 width and extra protection on the sides (EXO). Tubeless system is also suggested. If you are using tubeless, check it has liquid inside and it is not dry. We carry some bike parts on our tours but there are some parts that are very specific to each bike so you should consider bringing the following parts with you:

  • Extra derailleur hanger.
  • 2 sets of brake pads.
  • 2 Tubes, patches and pump. (We suggest putting tubeless system).
  • Some special tools for your bike and a bike multi-tool.
  • Back pack with water container. You will need to take your food, tools, water and jacket mainly.
  • Rain Jacket, waterproof, for cold mountain weathers.
  • Light thermal jacket. This will keep you warm if the temperature drops considerable.
  • 4 sets of riding clothes.
  • Helmet, gloves and safety glasses. Full face helmet is optional.
  • Knee pads. Elbow pads are optional.
  • Two pair of riding shoes.
  • Light.
  • Sun block. Recommended 50 SPF or more.
  • Insect repellent.

The best way to take your bike on the flight is on a bike box. You can choose either a normal hard cardboard box or those hard plastic boxes. In both cases, you should be very careful packing your bike and prevent scratching or some damage to vulnerable parts like the derailleur hanger, brakes, fork, etc. Use lots of padding and your knee and elbow pads to protect your bike and use also plastic strips to tight all the loose parts together. The way we pack our bikes is the following: we first take out the pedals, wheels and remove the disc rotors from the wheels.

Then we take the air from the shocks leaving only 5 or 10 psi. The next step is to put the seat post all the way into the frame or take it out and then take the handlebar away from the stem. We take also derailleur hanger from the frame to prevent damage. Now the bike is ready to put on the box and put all the protections to prevent scratching.

Make sure the bike fits on the box normally, check the area of the bottom of the fork and the back of the bike (derailleur hanger). You can put some of your riding gear such as shoes, knee and elbow pads, helmet, gloves, back pack, etc
