The route!

In the pre-departure rush to hand in final year projects, fix bikes, pack for the trip, do vivas and more, we never posted our planned route!

Over the next eight weeks we will be riding South from near Cusco in Peru to Uyuni in Bolivia. The route is about 2500km and crosses over the Andes, across the Bolivian Alti Plano and finishes at the Bolivian Salt Pans. We will be riding at high altitude, mainly over 4000m and climbing passes 5000m high. Most of the route is on quiet, graded tracks passing through remote villages, where our Spanish phrase book will no doubt come in handy!

The below maps give an overview of the planned route
