En bici de San Isidro a El Callao

Ready for a city-to-coast adventure through Lima? This roughly 19 km ride takes you from San Isidro—one of Lima’s most elegant, greenest districts—over to Callao, the city’s historic port.

You’ll start in San Isidro, known for its tranquil parks and modern architecture. The route is super cyclist-friendly, with the majority on dedicated cycleways and quiet roads, so it’s a great choice for those who prefer to avoid heavy traffic. Expect a mix of paved surfaces, with a bit of concrete and asphalt. There’s a steady but gentle rise—just enough to keep things interesting before you coast down toward sea level.

As you roll into Callao, you’ll notice a shift from city bustle to the lively vibe of the port. It’s Lima’s gateway to the Pacific, packed with colonial history—and fresh seafood if you need a bite after your ride. Don’t forget your camera: the coastal views near the end are pretty fantastic!
