About this trip

Nevado de Aconquija is a beautiful and very challenging bike ride in Argentina.  The ondulating terrain will take us up and down mostly all the time. The north of Argentina is a region full of contrasts and differences. In between minutes we leave from the sub-tropical jungle to arrive in the puna desert. Here is where 5500 meters snow capped mountains, deserts and cactus are part of the views. Then, we will face strong up hills to enjoy the joy of mountain biking: pure down hills!! Huasan is a place to mention. We will stay at this farm, the “Estancia Huasan”, which was built in 1711 during the period of Spanish colonization. Today is a specialized ranch that produces and exports premium quality olive oil. Mine complex, salt mines, centennial ranches with a huge Spanish and Indian background will be part of this tour.

I am passionate of mountain biking, travelling and getting to know people from different corners of the planet. This probably was what more than twenty years ago inspired me to start Mtbtours as a business but also as a way of life.
