Season: All the year.
BEGINNERS / INTERMEDIATES / EXPERTS
Total Time: 3-4 hours (65% on trails + 35% city ride)
About the Place:
El Morro is a dry, rocky place in the southern extreme of Lima Bay. Because of its location and height (nearly 300m) the weather is similar to the city, and during summer (Feb/Mar) it´s very hot and dry, so it´s better to ride early, in winter (Aug/Sep) it´s quite humid and a bit cold and some days are covered by mist.
The Trail:
The Morro trail covers around 12 km, but with optional extra tracks the ride can extend to 15–16 km, and a half extra climb could be added if necessary. The singletrack route takes a maximum of a couple of hours and features continuous climbs and descents on XC/enduro-style singletracks. Please note: we do not offer downhill-only rides.
Beginners Important Note / Advice:
BEGINNERS or road and urban cyclists will climb using paved and gravel roads.
The descent will be completed on the same roads or along easy singletrack trails. At the base of El Morro, there are several practice singletracks with varying levels of technical difficulty, making this ride an excellent learning experience for riders who are new to mountain biking.
If you would like to receive a mountain biking LESSON, please let us know in advance.
