SPOOKY!!! At least that´s what everyone tries to make you feel. I, on the other hand have to be honest, the road to Coroico from La Cumbre is dangerous but the world´s most?
I also have to admit that it´s the best ride I´ve ever done. You start at 4700m and finish at 1200m! 65 Km. of downhill with a drop of 3500 meters in altitute!!! Dangerous or not it´s a trip

Early in the morning a van picks you up and drives you to La Cumbre (the summit). It´s absolutely freezing, to the point that when we started our ride it was snowing! The first 21 Km. are done on a paved road with a stunning scenery.

After that you get to the death road. 15 tourists have died in the last 10 years plus 5 guides. The road is narrow, unpaved and it has a 100 meter cliff on one side. Now a days the road is not used by buses anymore, due to the opening of a new road. This has been like this since last November. Before the other road was opened, the bikers had to be really cautious with buses going the opposite way. All the ride is done with a beautiful landscape and you pass through almost every climate possible.

The ride is fantastic and you really go fast! Adrenaline pumping hard!
After 4 hours of riding we got to the end and had a well earned hot shower to get all that dust off! It was a great day 🙂
