Fly down the 'world’s most dangerous road' on this thrilling mountain-biking adventure! Leave from a high-altitude plain near La Paz, and follow expert guides downhill for 40 miles (64 km) on a narrow, winding road carved into the side of the incredible Andes. Take breaks along the way to admire the landscape that changes from the snowcapped Andes to the lush Amazonian jungle. This is one of the most incredible experiences in South America, and one you'll want to do with the most reccomended company in Bolivia, which uses international safety standards and ensures incredible service. After the riding adventure, unwind at La Senda Verde Ecotourism Resort, an animal refuge, where you’ll enjoy lunch and observe rescued wildlife. Return to La Paz the same day, or stay overnight at La Senda Verde or in Coroico. This is one you'll be telling the grandkids, so do it right!

What a spectacular experience. Kenneth (lead guide), Alvaro (guide) and Miguel (driver) have been extraordinary tour guides. They know the roads, they know how to bike, they are trained for all circumstances and have many tales to tell about the Death Road. Since this is quite an adventure you wanna be save and have excellent equipment. That was all offered by the guides and Gravity. Would recommend them without hesitances.

Today I cycled the famous 'death road' with tour operator 'Gravity' (who was recommended by our hotel staff)
I cannot praise this company and its staff enough, from the initial booking, the breakfast before we left, snacks enroute, the safety briefings, hints and tips along the way, stopping for photo opportunities, at the end we visited a animal sanctuary and were given lunch and paid a little extra for a guided tour which was also fantastic.
Our cycle guides Kenneth and Marco were a laugh a minute and made the trip even more special if that was even possible. 10/10 highly recommended!
