In bici da Independencia a San Luis

Kick off your ride in Independencia, a lively district of Lima known for its bustling markets and authentic local energy. From here, you’ll cruise mostly along dedicated cycleways—so you get a smooth, relatively stress-free ride through the city. The route is just over 18 kilometers and offers a gentle mix of ascents and descents (you’ll climb roughly 167 meters, nothing too crazy), making it a nice workout without being brutal.

As you pedal, you’ll pass through areas where Lima’s daily life unfolds—think smiling market vendors and kids kicking soccer balls. While much of your journey is on cycleways, be aware that just over half the route’s surface is unspecified, so you might hit some bumps or rough patches (always a good idea to check your tires and pack water).

Your destination is San Luis, a quieter residential district with a vibe that’s more laid-back compared to the city's hustle. Once you arrive, catch your breath, grab a snack from a local shop, and enjoy the contrast between two very different corners of Lima. Safe travels!
