Welcome to one of the world’s toughest ultra-cycling races. This new edition of the Andean Raid will cover 660km and 15,245m of elevation gain. Starting from Cusco’s historic Plaza de Armas and crossing the Sacred Valley of the Incas, descending into the Amazon Rainforest, and ending in the heights of the Andes ensures an adventure where only incredibly long climbs and descents, temperatures below 0 degrees at night, extreme altitudes, incredible views, and new friends to meet await you.
