Cielo Grande Ridge Ride
After a four mile climb out of the Panchoy Valley we reach the trail head of the Cielo Grande Ridge, or big sky ridge. This ride combines technical climbs with mouth watering cross-country single-track high above the valley floor. A cross-country rider’s dream, this ride has a little bit of everything, and always challenging.
- Visit indigenous towns tucked away in the high mountainside.
- Retrace ancient footpaths through old growth cloud forest.
- Enjoy the beautiful view of La Antigua from the top.
