Downhill (and some uphill) biking
|
After Yarina we had three day downhill biking trip and visit to Otavalo. In the second day the guides tricked us to bike up the same route we later came down! It was about 12-14Km uphill and we ascended about 650m (from 2400m to 3050m) according my GPS. We had Cotopaxi climbing tour scheduled a couple of days later and the guides wanted us to have some exercise before in order to adjust the high altitude. The third day biking was in really beatiful mountain area and we descended 1.5Km! (we also went uphill a couple of hundrer meters..) We stayed in Otavalo and had one chance to visit the famous market just before it was closing down. |
