Do you hate riding uphill? so...
In one day ride, more than 3.800 mts of vertical descent on the World's Most Dangerous Road.
Traditionally, the ride down to the World’s Most Dangerous Road splits into 2 parts: One section on paved road and the final and challenging section on a narrow 4*4 road. The name of this ride derives from this second part denomination.
The fast first part is worthy to ride on but many would like to enjoy instead a ride on the old road to Coroico before entering to the exciting second part. Just think on changing paved to dirt 4*4 road, riding on a car-free road and looking at some of the awesomest and undiscovered Bolivian landscapes.
Then, enter to the WMDR and conquer their blind corners and twisted narrow sections. Feel how a waterfall drops on you. Breathe clean air. Ride amidst butterflies and tropical flowers. There is just one World’s Most Dangerous Road and it is worthy trying it!
