Death Road Biking Tour in La Paz - Bolivia | Altitude Travel
The Death Road is one of the most unique activities Bolivia has to offer. Book Now:
Where else in the world can you cycle from snow-covered Andean Mountains all the way down to the entrance of the amazon jungle in a just a few hours? Internationally known for being the highlight of one’s trip when in South America, this exciting bike ride exposes some of Bolivia’s most breath-taking landscapes, beautiful mountains and sparkling waterfalls.
The Death Road, or “Camino de la Muerte” in Spanish, was cut on the side of the Cordillera Oriental Mountain chain in the 1930s and stretches for about 70km from La Paz to Coroico, connecting the Yungas(an ecoregion of the Amazon rain forest northeast of La Paz) to the administrative capital. From La Paz, the road climbs to around 4700 meters above sea level (over 15 thousand feet) at La Cumbre–in the Altiplano highlands- before descending to 1300 meters (4 thousand feet) to the Yungas, allowing travelers to experience an incredible change in both temperature and landscapes.
Surrounded by mountainous terrain and high precipices, the road gained its fame and name due to its danger and adrenaline-rush potential. In the 2000s, the modernization of the road and construction of an alternative one diverted the traffic and allowed for more safe conditions. Nowadays, this electrifying activity is suitable for both confident beginners and experienced mountain bikers of all ages.
As one of the highest ranked biking operators in Bolivia, at Altitude Biking we pride ourselves on providing the best in security, professionalism and fun. Our service includes safe vehicles, best-quality equipment and bikes, highly skilled English speaking tour guides 1 every 5 passengers, trained in Advanced First Aid, Mechanics and Rope Rescue- and fast contingency plans in place for any occurrence.

Bolivia Travel Guide - La Paz and El Alto
La Paz, the capital of Bolivia, is a city I’ve always wanted to visit. Surrounded by mountains, 3-4,000 meters above sea level, populated mostly by colourful indigenous peoples and framed by a crazy cityscape that tumbles into a valley of skyscrapers, La Paz has always held a certain mystique.
For the next few days we got to explore. We checked out a tooth festival, rode the cable cars, visited a massive market, I got attacked by a woman with a stick and we nearly got struck down by some sort of Ninja. As we are to find out, In La Paz anything can happen.

Bolivia - Pedestrian Day, La Paz
There are two reasons why you should not take tak the bike to move around in La Paz. The first is the altitude of the city and the sheer endless up and downs you would have to manage in the streets. The second reason is that the majority of drivers in the andean countries are not used to watch out for cyclists. So it is a good idea to use the occasion and do what you always wanted to do in the middle of highly frequented a street. Each year there is the dia peatonal - pedestrian day. Locals play football, do music or sell stuff in the middle of the town centre. As a tourist, you do not want to miss the colourful project.

Hello! Welcome to my little space on YouTube :) I'm Paul.
This kind of my personal diary where I record stuff I want to remember, mostly it's about traveling (yaaay) and a little bit about student stuff. I try to make weekly videos and I try to cover some of the things I learned, some small tips here and there. I keep it unfiltered, positive, sarcastic.
Thank you, for being curious about my stuff :3

Death Road mountain biking outside La Paz, Bolivia
Mountain biking down Death Road, or Ruta de la Muerte, outside La Paz, Bolivia on 9 July 2019. The name comes from all the fatal accidents happening here. Supposedly, 200-300 people plunged off the road and died here every year before 2006 when a new road was constructed to replace it.
Our group didn't have any fatalities, still one guy was knocked over by a truck and another ran into a wall (neither captured on film).
