Mountain Biking in the Galapagos
After taking in the Galapagos coast, climb in the saddle and peddle your way up to a less explored part of the Islands—the highlands.Ride back roads through lush cloud forests and highland farms to breathtaking vistas and quaint local villages. Mountain biking tours are offered throughout the Galapagos Islands and are one of the best ways to experience Galapagos adventure travel at its best.
Some of the best rides are on Santa Cruz Island and San Cristobal Island. Santa Cruz provides an intimate encounter with Galapagos nature and culture. See animals in their natural habitats and taste local cuisine along the way. Or tour the San Cristobal highlands and take in stunning views of the coast before dropping down to Mann Beach, one of the most beautiful white sand beaches in the Galapagos.
