About the Place:

Lurin River is south of Lima, it is born in the Andes highlands and runs down to the coast. This ride is in the lower lands, and depending on your preparation we may plan the longest track or some partial distance, This is one of our classic rides, especially for training or for some challenging climbing day.

About the Ride:

This is a ride on gravel and paved roads. Dending the season we ride from Pachacámac to Nieve Nieve or Cieneguilla to Sisicaya villages. 26K to 34K of climbing distance depending the season. Rideable practically the whole year.

Is ideal for people who rides frequently on road or gravel bikes. In case you are an eventual rider we recommend to ride the Pachacamac Valley without the section of singletracks (total distance of 22 or 36 Kms and 250 mt of elevation gain)

What to bring:

Try to bring your basic equipment: helmet, gloves (if not, we provide them). 
A wind vest or a couple of layers on winter days. Sunscreen is needed the whole year.
There are many places to buy food and water during the ride, so carrying a litre of water is maybe enough.

Seasons:

It may be done the whole year, the starting point on winter is cold with 15°C of temperature, however as the ride advances and begin to climb the temperature rise to warmer or hot reaching 20°C to 26°C on a dry and sunny land increasing the sense of heath and the need of drinking water.
