Mountain Biking
From easy paved roads to steep single tracks, Mexico has it all. We offer a wide selection of different mountain biking experience.
Below are the two most favorite routes but we can discuss other options based on your request and level.
Each trip is accompanied with a motorized vehicle near by in case of a defect or to help with any other possible issues.
There will be a paramedic with the group at all times. Our support vehicle will transport our gear, food and water for each rest stop.
