Itinerary
Meet at 7:30am in the workshop in La Paz where you will get your bike and equipment before leaving La Paz in the southern foothills. The high altitude desert flows along several beautiful valleys with stunning views of La Paz and its surrounding mountains. Your guide will choose the trails based on your level of experience, starting easily on a warm-up trail and building up to the best trails in the area where you can be as challenged as you feel comfortable. Watch out for the sheep whose shepherds lead them to graze in these hills as you make your way through small villages, seemingly untouched by time. We will return to La Paz in the evening, around 6:00pm.
