NEXT TRIP PROPOSALS
We have received enquiries for the following bike trips in Peru.
Those are from lonely riders willing to ride but to reduce the cost per person they want to join a group. And we are trying to organize the group.
You are invited to join and participate and share the adventure biking in Peru experience.
The plan is to make possible for everyone to ride in Peru by joining the trip for the section you want to ride and during the days you have available.
The proposals are listed below.

The scenery in the Peruvian mountains is breathtaking, with some of the Andes’ most spectacular subranges. A bike is the perfect way to explore the huge network of small mountain roads which snake through the country – roads which may or may not appear on published maps you manage to lay your hands on. The climbs are often huge, the culture is fascinating, the local people are extremely friendly, and if you spend all your time on the quiet roads you won’t have to deal with the poor driving.
Peru has a near monopoly on the high passes in the Andes, and has most of the toughest routes we know of. There is no easy way through the Peruvian Andes – this is a huge country, and the vertical terrain makes for slow going. If sticking to the easier, main roads through the hills (often referred to as ‘The Mountain Route’), count on spending at least 2 months travelling from one end of the country to another. If taking a quieter, unpaved, route count on at least 3 months, preferably more.
