Immerse yourself in the Wild West on this incredible bucket list adventure! Setting off from the ancestral lands of the Native American Navajo nation you’ll cycle along the famous Route 66, taking in the amazing landscape. You’ll even visit the Hoover Dam before you complete your challenge in Las Vegas!
Don’t be misled by the name, as this incredible park is far from lifeless! The scenery of Death Valley National Park has to be seen to be believed, 13 miles wide at points and surrounded by dramatic mountain ranges. On the final day of your challenge you’ll see the striking Red Rock Canyons before you ride into Las Vegas.
From the ancient sequoias of Yosemite National Park dwarfed by the breathtaking El Capitan, passing through farmland and rural communities, we’ll even have the chance to stop to sample the local wine and produce in Walnut Grove on our way to San Francisco! We’ll celebrate our achievements with a special meal on our final evening.
Follow the Bright Angel Trail deep into the Grand Canyon, trekking in the footsteps of the Native American groups the canyon is home to. We’ll trek through three stunning national parks on our way to Zion Canyon, where the view of the vibrant sandstones will take your breath away.
From the hustle and bustle of Havana, we’ll cycle through the Escambray Mountains where we’re rewarded with incredible views of villages and orchards. We’ll ride along shimmering coastlines on our way to the finish and complete our achievement with a Cuba Libre! Spend your final evening salsa dancing the night away, this really is an adventure to remember.
Costa Rica Coast-to-Coast Cycle
One of the toughest challenges out there, but one of the most rewarding too! Starting on the Pacific Coast, we’ll pass by the Mirabelle and Tenorio volcanoes on our way to camp at the base of the famous Arenal Volcano. The hilly and hot ride across this volcanic country is sure to test us, but the sight of the Caribbean coast and final night in San Jose make it all worth it!
