ANCIENT TRAIL RIDING

Today we get really busy riding our bikes. We shuttle to Ollantaytambo and drive passing a weavers community to a high altitude pass and we ride towards the east in direction to mountain range pass and drop back to the valley passing through Willoc town were people still use typical customs on a daily basis and their major activities are agriculture, weaving and handcrafts. This is one of the few places regular visitors don’t get to see. We will have lunch on a restaurant very close to Ollantaytambo and head to Malaga Pass at 4,600 to ride the AVALANCHE TRAIL. ↓ 2000M 26 KMS ↑ 244m

The district next to us is Yucay and hosts the Yucay Arqueologycal Park with multiple and huge Inca Terraces. We will pedal close to them and take a look at a rupestre Paint made thousand of years ago by human being as well as the multiple terraces the Incas built to grow food. This place has one of the richest soils in the Sacred Valley as well as multiple conditions that made it a sacred place to do agricultura. The terraces end on the two main parks that are divided by one of the biggest colonial churches in the área. Lunch will be at the YUCAY park and we will shuttle to Calca to ride Lares from the pass at 4460M, a classic ride that drops to the Sacred Valley. ↓ 1400M 19 KMS ↑ 304m
