Mountain biking Macanao

Riding dirt tracks with an empty beach always on your right.

Best time
At sunrise
Area
Macanao peninsula
Duration
2–4 h
Difficulty
Moderate

Macanao has kilometres of firm dirt tracks hugging the south coast and crossing dry valleys. No traffic, no signage and almost nobody about, so you set your own route. The terrain rolls rather than tests, which makes it doable for anyone who rides semi-regularly.
