Baja Desert Retreat

Join us on this co-ed coached riding retreat with legendary rider and coach Yoann Barelli as we mountain bike Mexico's glorious Baja California. Days are kept simple so you can focus on riding, recharging and enjoying the sun. This holiday is based in the small fishing village of La Ventana (also kite-surfing mecca), located on the eastern shore of the Baja along the beautiful Sea of Cortez. Pedal from the door of our seaside resort each morning to access 133 kms of buffed and fun desert trails that are suitable for intermediate and above riders. Rides are typically three-four hours long (shorter & longer available) followed by lunch and an afternoon at your leisure and an optional evening pedal. The focus of this trip is to get your fitness tuned up, learn some new skills and have a ton of fun. There's lots to do when not on the bike; sipping drinks and relaxing in the shade, eating fish tacos and delicious cuisine, daily yoga at our private studio or just reading your book and napping in a hammock. According to singletracks.com La Ventana boasts six of the top ten trails in Mexico.
