The Agafay hills offer flowing terrain, with no major technical difficulty but just enough relief to make the ride interesting. Two hours led by a guide who adapts the route to the group's level.
The welcome comes with a coffee, followed by the briefing: introduction to the bike, saddle adjustment, brake check. Everyone gets a serviced hardtail mountain bike, a helmet and a water bottle. The route combines packed tracks, cross-country trails and a few playful descents through the dry riverbeds. The heat climbs quickly around midday: the morning and late-afternoon slots are the most recommended.
