Acay Bike Challenge from 1300m to 4950m

This 6 day mountain-bike voyage runs along one of the highest route of America , the same route of which runs through the Calchaqui Valleys and the Puna of Salta in the North East of Argentina. The journey involves a climb up the Cuesta del Obispo in order to get to the small village of Cachi. The path continues along the famous National Route 40, behind villages such as Payogasta and La Poma, continuing with an ascension of more than 2000 meters in order to arrive at the highest point, the Abra de Acay located 4895m above sea level. What goes up must come down, so after a tough climb we will head down-hill to San Antonio de los Cobres ending up in Salta City via the spectacular Quebrada del Toro (Bull Gorge).
