Description

Tour Description

Pedal through one of Sacred Valley’s best kept secrets on a full day MTB adventure: the Lares MTB Route, also known as Lares Inca Trail MTB. This route descends over 3,937 feet (1,200 meters) of vertical through an ancient stone path surrounded by wild llamas, alpine landscapes, and remote Andean villages.

This trail is ideal for intermediate level cyclists looking to take their skills to the next level and for advanced mountain bikers who love technical terrain. Get ready for an exciting combination of Inca stairs, natural rock gardens, tight switchbacks, progressive drops, and “Inca Flow” sections: natural singletrack with fluid rhythm and fast lines.

You can book the tour with complete equipment included or choose the experience only version if you bring your own bike and protection.

We’ll equip you with full face helmet, gloves, knee pads, elbow pads, and optional chest protector. We’ll also check and adjust bikes to ensure everything is ready.

At 9:30 a.m. we’ll begin descent through legendary Lares Inca Trail, approximately two hour route and 11.2 miles (18 kilometers) of pure adrenaline with almost 4,265 feet (1,300 meters) of elevation loss. During this experience we’ll live:

  • Technical rock gardens testing our skill
  • Original Inca stairs and tight highly demanding curves
  • Intermediate segments requiring constant pedaling
  • Fast sections known as “Inca Flow”
  • Encounters with free roaming llamas and alpacas
  • Crossings through high Andean communities full of color and tradition

Advanced riders will enjoy natural wallrides, drops, and creative lines, while intermediate cyclists will have option to walk most demanding sections and focus on terrain progression.

Around noon we’ll finish route in lower valley. We’ll take break to relax, hydrate, and capture memorable photos of this unforgettable day.

Around 12:30 p.m. we’ll have possibility to stop at local restaurant for optional lunch, where we can taste authentic Andean dishes.

Finally, between 1:30 and 2:00 p.m. we’ll begin return in our private transportation. Estimated arrival in Cusco will be between 3:00 and 3:30 p.m., closing a day full of adrenaline, culture, and unique Andes landscapes.
