ABOUT CHINCHA AND CHAVIN
Chincha is a dessert town near the coast 2 – 2:30 hours south from Lima. It holds a busy town, some industrial operations and big agricultural operations. From Chincha we will head to the east for 2 more hours, pass the dessert and start climbing a mountain road until 3,600m close to the CHAVIN town.
ABOUT THE RIDE
Few people know similar versions with a lot of hiking involved. We put a lot of time to get the right connections and make it a longer ride with very Little pushing.
This ride is very similar to the crest parts of OLLEROS but LONGER and probably is the best ride close to Lima. Expect endless deserted crests that will make you feel like riding on the moon. Totally worth it!
