Our Beginner Mountain Bike Tour in Antigua

Guatemala is one of the few places in the world, where there are 3-4 harvests with growing seasons that overlap. As corn reaches mid-height, farmers sew beans a the base of the stalks. As the corn is harvested, the beans begin their season- hence “lands of luxury”.

This beginner mountain bike tour in Antigua follows smooth, sandy singletrack at the base of the Acatenango Volcano -shared by horses and farmers. The route finishes with a fast descent back to the cobblestone streets of the colonial capital.
