Day 1: Start San Pedro de Atacama; transfer to hotel
The adventure begins in the town of San Pedro de Atacama, Chile. We check into our hotel and have a welcome briefing this evening, a good chance to meet the group and ask any questions you may have. Accommodation: Hotel Pascual Andino (or similar)
Day 2: Cycle to the Valley of the Moon
This morning, we get on our bikes for the first time and go on an acclimatisation ride. We depart the town of San Pedro and cycle to the Valley of the Moon. Here you feel as if you have landed on another planet, it is often compared to Mars with its red rock formations and dunes. Afterwards, we cycle to salt caves, before returning to San Pedro. Accommodation: Hotel Pascual Andino (or similar)
Day 3: Visit El Tatio geysers; afternoon ride to San Isidro's Chapel
We have a very early start as we depart our hotel and set off towards the impressive Tatio Geysers, the third largest geyser fields in the world and the largest in the southern hemisphere. They are located at 13,125ft (4,000m) above sea level. Departing early gives us an opportunity to watch sunrise in one of the most important geothermic fields in the world. On arrival, we enjoy breakfast in this beautiful setting, providing us the perfect way to warm up. On our return to San Pedro, we see beautiful sites and stop in the village of Machuca, an Atacameño village of 20 houses built from clay, straw and cactus wood. We head back to town in time for lunch. In the afternoon, we have a short ride to San Isidro’s Chapel, stopping along the way at well-known landmarks, including a winding canyon known as Devil’s Throat. Accommodation: Hotel Pascual Andino (or similar)
Day 4: Cross border into Argentina; cycle alongside Jama salt flats; transfer to Susques
Today is a long travel day, so we rise early to say goodbye to Chile and cross via the Jama Pass (14,025ft/4,275m) into Argentina (approximately 2hr 30min). We stop along the way at viewpoints to stretch our legs and take photos, including a pause at lagoons in Los Flamencos National Reserve. Once we clear immigration, we continue our transfer to the town of Jama (approximately 2hr 30min). In Jama, we have lunch before we get on our bikes and cycle alongside the Jama salt flats. We then have another transfer (approximately 1hr 30min) to Susques, our destination for the night. Accommodation: Hotel Pastos Chicos (or similar)
Day 5: Transfer to Salinas Grandes; scenic picnic lunch; downhill ride to the Humahuaca Gorge and the Hill of Seven Colours
Departing Susques, we transfer (approximately one hour) to the small community of Cerro Negro. We unload the bikes and cycle towards the Salinas Grandes saltpans. Here, we can ride on salt before stopping for our picnic lunch. After lunch, we have a short transfer to the viewpoint of Abra de Potrerillos (13,680ft/4,170m). From here, we enjoy a fast, downhill ride with amazing views of coloured hills and rock formations until we arrive at the Hill of Seven Colours. After taking photos, we have a short ride to our hotel just outside the town of Purmamarca. Accommodation: Casa de Adobe Hotel (or similar)
Day 6: Transfer to El Carmen; cycle through rainforest; transfer to Salta
We start the morning with a transfer (approximately one hour) to the small town of El Carmen. Today’s ride feels completely different as we cycle on a paved road through a rainforest heading south towards Salta. This route joins the two main cities in the province, Salta and Jujuy, and is one of the most spectacular cycling stages we encounter: a serpentine road with lush rainforest on either side. We stop for a picnic lunch near the town of La Caldera before boarding a transfer to our destination for the next two nights, the beautiful city of Salta. Accommodation: Design Suites Salta (or similar)
Day 7: Free day in Salta
Spend today at leisure and enjoy exploring beautiful Salta. We recommend visiting the Museum of High Altitude Archaeology (MAAM) in the town centre, where you can see one of three mummified children from the Inca civilisation, who were sacrificed at the Llullaillaco Volcano. Please ask your tour leader to organise your visit. We can also arrange a bird-watching trip to Finca Cielo Verde. Accommodation: Design Suites Salta (or similar)
Day 8: Transfer to abandoned train station; cycle along the Conchas River
Following breakfast, we transfer (approximately two hours) to the abandoned Alemania village and train station. After exploring, we get on our bikes and cycle along the Conchas River. We pass many interesting rock formations, with names such as the Amphitheatre and Devil’s Throat. Today is our longest ride but we end in the tranquil wine-producing town of Cafayate. Accommodation: Viñas de Cafayate Wine Resort (or similar)
Day 9: Cycle to the Sacred City of Quilmes; guided tour and transfer back
This morning, we cycle towards the Sacred City of Quilmes. These are Calchaquí ruins, from an indigenous community that once lived among the Calchaquí mountain range. It is considered the largest pre-Columbian settlement in Argentina. We have a guided tour of the ruins before lunch and then a transfer (approximately one hour) back to Cafayate. En route, we stop at Las Arcas de Tolombon Winery for a wine tasting. Accommodation: Viñas de Cafayate Wine Resort (or similar)
Day 10: Ride to the Calchaqui Valley; transfer to Molinos passing the Valley of Arrows
After breakfast, we cycle towards the Calchaqui Valley passing through the old town of San Carlos, one of the oldest towns in Argentina. After lunch, we take a transfer (approximately 1hr 30min) to Molinos but stop at the best locations to get great photos. Everywhere you look you will see horizontal rock formations that appear to have been fired at Earth from space. We also pass a few sleepy small towns and hamlets along the way. Accommodation: Hacienda de Molinos Hotel (or similar)
Day 11: Cycle using the old National Route 40 to Cachi
After breakfast, we cycle straight from our hotel and head on the old National Route 40 to Seclantas. This is a very scenic route alongside the Calchaquí River. When we arrive at El Colte, we stop and appreciate art produced by loom weavers. Afterwards, we carry on cycling until we arrive at our hotel for the night. Accommodation: El Cortijo Hotel Boutique (or similar)
Day 12: Cycle in Los Cardones National Park; downhill stage along Bishop's Slope; final transfer to Salta
For our final day of cycling, we have a short transfer (approximately 30 minutes) to our starting point in Los Cardones National Park. The name comes from the hundreds of cardon grande cacti growing throughout the park. From here, we have our final biking stage, downhill along the mesmerising Bishop’s Slope. The last leg of our journey is completed with a transfer back to Salta. Accommodation: Design Suites Salta (or similar)
Day 13: End Salta
The adventure draws to a close today and we begin our return journeys home. If you’d like more time to explore, speak to your sales representative about extending your stay.

All breakfasts and nine lunches are included. Hotel breakfasts are normally buffets, and lunches are either at convenient restaurant stops during our rides or packed lunches. There is a variety of tasty food on offer in the hotels and local restaurants for the evening meals that are not included in the price of the trip. Chile and Argentina traditionally have a lot of meat dishes in their cuisine; however, vegetarians can be catered for throughout the trip. Please ensure you advise us of any dietary requirements before you travel so we can make the necessary arrangements on your behalf.

Is this trip for you?

This trip is classified Road and Activity Level 4 (Moderate/Challenging).

Average daily distance: 32mi (51km)

Total distance: Approximately 320mi (516km)

Number of cycling days: 10

Vehicle support: 100 percent

Terrain and route: Approximately 67 percent paved, 33 percent unpaved roads. Some large elevation gains; mixed cycling terrain; variable weather conditions and some remote locations

The set itinerary is not technical; however, most of this tour is spent at high altitude and sometimes we cycle above 9,845ft (3,000m), where the air is noticeably thinner. Because of this, we recommend you have good fitness levels for this trip.

Some cycling experience is recommended.

Most of the roads are in good condition, although there can be potholes and poorer conditions in some short sections. You should be prepared for some cycling on unpaved gravel/dirt roads.

The roads are generally free of heavy traffic until we reach towns, where we are more likely to encounter other vehicles.
