Normal physical conditions and summer clothes, bikers require good acclimatization over 4000m. One day before all the bikers will have meeting with the mountain bike guide at our office or your hotels, who will give a BRIEFING about this bike trip and also you can check the quality of bikes and gear will be used on this trip. This is available trip for beginners and people of all age, the road for downhill is in good conditions and not technical level, just nice downhill and cross country on the last part of the trip.Tour guide advice you to book trip with private supporting vehicle because some time people feel tired on the last part of the trip. Another facility taking PRIVATE VIP SERVICE the vehicle can be used to stop and visit places along the sacred valley of Incas between Cusco and Abra Malaga. Also when you will be biking is better to leave your personal items in the supporting vehicle making more comfortable your biking trip without backpack in your back. In case you book this trip with public bus (backpacker service) you don’t chance to visit part of the sacred valley and if you feel out continue biking you will need to push you own bike till Santa Maria, this is not usual but is not nice if some needs to do it.
Is recommendable have yellow fiber vaccination (malaria) because you will be 3 days in the high jungle. We never hear news about problems with malaria in this zone but are better to be prepared.
