What an e-bike can do

This is the day that best shows what an e-bike can do: a full loop, no shuttle, climbing on the same pre-Hispanic singletrack that connects the villages of the Lamay valley and descending on it at the end. We leave Lamay plaza and gain height linking Sapacto, Chumpe and Huancco, three communities perched on the hillside, among terraces, irrigation channels and paths still in daily use.

Up high the landscape changes completely: mountain ridges, high Andean lakes and alpaca herds, with the whole Sacred Valley open below. Then comes the reward: a stunning final descent along ridgelines, past lakes and through picturesque villages, back to Lamay plaza.

Practical information

How it works

9:00 am to 5:00 pm. We meet at Lamay plaza and ride a full loop back to it: no shuttle, the e-bike does the climbing on the same trails we descend at the end.

Level: Intermediate–Expert

For experienced and fit riders: big vertical, exposure and narrow trails. Half of the day is descent on pre-Hispanic singletrack.

Why an e-bike

This is the day that best shows what an e-bike can do: climbing on singletrack that would mean pushing on a normal bike, and saving energy for the final descent.

Trail fee

USD 10 per rider is paid to the village of Lamay for trail access and maintenance. It is not included in the price.

Sizes and age

We have e-bikes in every size, suitable from age 13, for riders with the required experience.

Approximate distances

As this is a day tour, distances are approximate.
