This is our star Argentinean tour! You will cross the incredible Andes mountains, leaving civilization far behind for six days of amazing biking! It is truly awesome!
On this trip we experience the awesome Andes mountains as we get to bike through some of the most incredible scenery you will find anywhere! Our challenging uphill climbs are rewarded by the views, the sight of Condors soaring in the heavens, the experience of camping under the Andes’ pure starry skies and bathing in Andean hot springs! And of course, we have some truly amazing downhill rides!
We start at Malargue in the Argentine province of Mendoza. This is the heart of the Andes, with the classic arid, high altitude landscape that appears never-ending. Our destination is Curicó in Chile, where we arrive after having crossed the Andes at Vergara Pass (2500 meters/ 8202 feet above sea level). As we make our epic descent into Chile the landscape around us becomes greener and more lush with every hour until we reach our destination.
With the sights and experiences we will have on the way, this is truly the trip of a lifetime!
