Cycling day trip from Lo Prado to Peñaflor

Kick off your cycling adventure from the heart of Lo Prado, a vibrant part of Santiago with its cool local vibe and bustling community spaces. Once you're all geared up, embark on this nearly 48-kilometer journey that winds from urban edges to the more laid-back scenes of Peñaflor.

As you pedal away from Lo Prado, you’ll glide through a mixed bag of surfaces with most of your ride on smooth asphalt, peppered with some concrete and paved sections – perfect for keeping up a good pace. You'll also encounter some cozy quiet roads and dedicated cycleways, allowing you to find your groove without too much hustle.

The route is fairly gentle in terms of elevation, so you can expect more descents than climbs. Just make sure to stay alert on those busier patches and enjoy the tranquility on the quieter roads!

Peñaflor welcomes you with open arms and its charming rural charm, providing an ideal spot to kick back post-ride. You'll find a mix of parks and local eateries to refuel.
