Day 1Cusco – Abra Málaga – Santa María (Biking & Rafting)

The adventure begins with an early pick-up from the hotel between 5:00 and 5:30 a.m. The group heads to the reception area, where a delicious breakfast is served to start the day with energy. After breakfast, the journey continues through the Sacred Valley of the Incas, passing through stunning natural and cultural landscapes.

After approximately two hours, Ollantaytambo appears, a charming Incan town with cobbled streets and ancient ruins. A 30-minute break allows time to buy snacks, refill water bottles, and use the restroom. From here, the transport heads toward the “Abra Malaga” mountain pass, reaching an impressive 4,350 meters above sea level.

Upon arrival, full biking gear is provided, including full-suspension mountain bikes, helmets, gloves, and protective equipment. The biking descent covers 55 km of winding roads, passing villages, orchards, rivers, and streams for an exciting ride. The ride finishes in Maybamba, at 1,200 meters above sea level, where transport awaits to take the group to Santa María.

In the afternoon, we will go rafting on the Urubamba River. The river has gentle and moderate rapids. This makes it both fun and safe.

Before sunset, a 40-minute walk leads to San Pablo, a rustic jungle settlement deep in the rainforest. Here, a traditional dinner is served, offering an authentic taste of local cuisine. We will sleep in rustic jungle houses, enjoying the Amazon-Andean environment before the next day’s journey.
