Peru Cycle Adventure 2024 | Part 21 | The Peru Divide Day 6 | 4K
Peru cycle tour #21. We now have 2 days remaining to cycle the high mountain road between Cajatambo and Oyon. After a day of rest we left the festive town of Cajatambo feeling re-energised. We started the climb from 3300m to a pass of 4500m. The road is currently closed to motor vehicles due to roadworks which allowed us to cycle on completely empty roads apart from Alpacas and other animals we saw along the road. The mountain scenery was beautiful as we climbed higher. After cycling over the 4500m pass we found a nice wild camp spot near a stream. We camped next to a couple from Germany and spent the evening talking to them about cycling adventures around the world. As the sun went down it became extremely cold with frost on the inside of our outer tent.
Tomorrow we will have our last day on the bikes and continue to climb to the second pass and our highest altitude ever at 4840m.
