Mountain biking down the sacred valley!

Description

You will be picked up from your hotel at 8am and will head by private transport out of Cusco for about 1h30 until reaching the village of Chinchero - Cruzpata at (3650m/11975ft). From there you'll get your biking equipment and after going over a few safety procedures, the ride will begin!During the first part of the ride, there are a few up- hills and some nice downhills with optional single-tracks for those who like it a bit more technical. The scenery is unforgettable with excellent views of the Veronica Mountain range. The first main stop will be at the Incan agricultural testing site of Moray (3500m/11482ft) and we'll take a break here to catch our breath and explore the area. Continuing the ride we'll arrive to Maras (2900m/9514ft) riding to the crystal-white terraces of the pre-Incan salt mines and then continue on the best downhill of the day - a 30 minute downhill on a llama path ending on the bank of the Urubamba river in a place called Taraybamba (2650m/8994ft). Here we finish the tour and return to Cusco. This experience is absolutely gorgeous for those are looking to visit famous sites in an alternative way.
