3 hours ride along the cycle lanes of the seafront of San Isidro, Miraflores, Barranco and the coastline of Lima known as Costa Verde. The main goal is to get to the Cross at the top of El Morro de Chorrillos for an open view of Lima city.

About the Place:
During the last years governments have built cyclelanes in the city and along the coastline, so today we can enjoy a flat cycling ride that spans almost the entire bay. This makes this trail very safe to ride bikes, and better if early, when there are few people around.
The Rides:
Starting from our office, we have the choice to ride the full loop or a partial ride depending your fitness condition and skills.
1. The Main Loop: Good for average cyclists, 2 hours of effective riding time and an average of 30 Km. One way could be done along the beaches and return by Lima Seafront, it includes reaching La Herradura Beach and/or the climb to El Morro Cross viewpoint by road.
2. Shorter Loops: Just a ride along the seafront of Miraflores and Barranco to the bottom of El Morro. Ideal for non regular cyclists. 25Km completely flat.
If 25Km is too long for you we may just turn back in Barranco for an easier ride of 18Km
Extra Activities: We may use the ride to stop and take a breakfast, coffee or a dessert or after finishing the ride walk a couple of blocks and visit the local market and pick some bread, juice, coffee or fruits (spends not included).
Available the whole year
From July to September, rain becomes more common in the city, which may result in ride delays or rescheduling to the afternoon. Lima is not well built for rain; as a result, when it is wet, it takes a considerable amount of time to dry. On hot days is a smart decision to ride as early as possible to avoid the heath and the crowd that goes to the beaches.
What to bring:
Try to bring your basic equipment: helmet, gloves, if not we provide them.
Just a small snack and 1 Lt of water. There are lot of shops on the way. Sunscreen in summer.
A wind vest or a couple of layers on winter days.
