Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Santa Cruz do Cotoca

This leisurely ride takes you from the bustling heart of Santa Cruz de la Sierra to the tranquil town of Cotoca, just over 25 km to the east. You'll start off in Santa Cruz, Bolivia’s largest city, famous for its vibrant markets and palm-lined plazas. The route is mostly flat and relaxed, with hardly any ascents—perfect for an easy day on the bike.

You’ll mostly cruise along quiet roads, so expect minimal traffic and plenty of chances to enjoy the scenery. Most of the pathway isn’t clearly surfaced, but you’ll cross patches of concrete, paving stones, and some stretches of smooth pavement. You might even smell the sugarcane from the nearby fields as you approach Cotoca!

Once you arrive, make sure to check out the Santuario de la Virgen de Cotoca—a major pilgrimage site and a must-see. All in all, this ride is a great way to connect the city and the countryside, with plenty of local color along the way.
