Package description
|
|
The mountain bike is perfect to discover Trinidad: Rugged jungle covered mountains alternate with verdant lowlands and rounded sloping hills - accessible by an intricate network of trade routes and trails dating back to old plantation days. Bikers encounter exotic birds, giant butterflies, monkeys and orchids. Discover the diversity of the landscape on shady paths, that is also suitable for the less ambitious bikers. The more professional bikers will get the ultimate challenge to overcome mountainous highs of 700 to 1500 meters...
You can choose to combine this package with a one-week mountain biking package on the sister island Tobago: more details. |
