Your Tour Itinerary
9:30 am – Cusco to the Start Place
Your expert guide will show you all you need to know and with the help of the latest full-suspension bikes, you will be cruising the trails in no time.
After the pick-up at your hotel and a short drive, you’ll arrive at the start point amongst the fields of the Chinchero Plateau such as potatoes, beans, corn, kiwicha, and quinoa combine their colors to lend a patchwork effect to this very traditional agricultural area. With a constant backdrop of the snow-capped Urubamba range, this is a photographer’s dream.
The riding starts gently on mainly flat trails. Soon a few small uphills punctuate the route to Moray where you can jump off the bikes and visit these unique Inca ruins. Very different from anything else you will see, the concentric circle terracing is thought to have been used as an early agricultural laboratory. The different depths and aspects allowed by the circular terracing helped the Incas predict what crops might grow where.
Lunch
When you finish your tour of the site lunch will be set up and waiting for you.
After lunch, it is all downhill. You’ll cover a distance of 750 meters or 2500 feet of fantastic single track. While some parts are tricky, with the help and encouragement of your guide you will arrive at the salt pans of Maras. Still mined by hand you could even take some home as a souvenir.
