DESCRIPTIONS:

DEATH ROAD BIKING PERU:

Mountain biking down the “World’s Dangerous Road” from the heights of Machu Picchu (Yana Mayo pass) is undeniably one of the most popular activities amongst backpackers in Peru. Whether you’re a confident beginner or an experienced rider, this exhilarating adventure promises an unforgettable experience. Commencing amidst the breathtaking mountain vistas at an elevation of 4560 meters, the route descends gracefully through the enchanting Yungas cloud forest, ultimately leading to the semi-tropical ambiance of Ocobamba. This unique journey offers the perfect fusion of awe-inspiring scenery and the adrenaline rush of downhill mountain biking.
