On board our bicycles and the necessary safety equipment, we will descend for several kilometers until we arrive at the town of Santa María. In this descent of approximately 4 hours, we will have lunch in one of the local villages. Later we will do the canoeing adventure on the Vilcanota River. Finally we will arrive at the town of Santa María where we will have dinner and spend the night in a local lodging.

  • We will get up very early to enjoy a nutritious breakfast. Then we will start the hiking trails, first uphill where we will appreciate the vastness of trees and green mountains. In the town of Quellumayo we will stop for lunch at a local restaurant. In the afternoon we will continue our route through beautiful landscapes until we arrive at the town of Santa Teresa. There we will relax in the famous Cocalmayo thermal baths (10 soles for foreigners and 5 soles for Peruvians). In Santa Teresa, after enjoying the thermal baths, we will have dinner and spend the night in a local hotel.
