Valle Las trancas

Mountain biking in the Las Trancas area offers an incredible variety and unique scenery. The bike park at Nevados de Chillan is world class (it’s been home to numerous international competitions) but offers something for every ability level – if you're a downhill maniac, don’t hesitate to don your full face and pads and hit the adrenaline button.

We split our days evenly between the park and trail riding in the Reserva Ecologica, so a bike that’s got enough burl and travel to handle the rigors of the park and still climbs decently is probably the best bet – enduro-style bikes with 5-6 inches of travel in the 30-35 lb. range fit the bill nicely.
