Abra of Lares Biking Tour from Cusco

Then we'll travel for 1 hr by bus until reaching the quiet town of Calca. After a break, the journey continues to the highest point, the Abra of Lares (4470 mt) and around 10.30am we'll start the departure with our mountain bikes accompanied by a guide. These isolated highlands, covered only with straw (andean grass), and the snow capped mountains give you such a special feeling. The scenery turns into a canyon, along the way, travelers will see alpacas, vicuñas y llamas, small villages, farms and livestock. We'll also visit some “chulpas” (pre-inca ruins), which are an evidence of the importance of this place. In this area we'll enjoy a typical lunch. After a short break we will continue our biking tour until arriving at the hot water springs called “Machacancha”. Later we'll continue for 1hr back to the village of Calca, where our private transportation will take us back to Cusco, arriving around 7:30pm.
