More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The first pedal stroke lifts dust off the rocky road and the Pacific wind pushes you toward the sea. Riders roll out from Montezuma—colorful houses, stray dogs, and the steady hiss of surf—then thread singletrack, gravel tracks and short technical rock sections that skirt cliffs and coconut groves.

Hydration pack
Bring at least 1–1.5 liters in a hydration pack—water sources are limited on route.
Tire pressure & puncture kit
Lower pressure slightly for rocky sections and carry a tube/patch kit—rocks and thorns are common.
Sun protection
Use SPF 30+ and a brimmed cap under your helmet; coastal sun is intense even on overcast days.
Ride to your skill level
There are short technical rock sections—ask the guide to reroute if you’re uncomfortable.
Hydration pack (1–1.5 L)
Keeps you hydrated on hot coastal sections where water isn’t available.
Helmet
Protects against falls on rocky and singletrack sections; helmets are provided but you may bring your own.
Closed-toe trail shoes
Better grip and pedal control on slippery rocks and when dismounting near beaches.
Compact bike repair kit & spare tube
Punctures are common on gravel; basic tools and a spare tube will keep you rolling.
