How long does it take to cycle the whole route (approx)?
64km on almost 4 hours with stops for photos and stories. :)
Hello! The trip take about 3 - 4 hours. It´s down hill.
yes, usually a day as you go on a guided tour
2-3 hours cycling. The tour takes the whole day departing from La Paz.
It's a day long affair if count the moment that you meet in downtown La Paz to go up the pass with a bus etc. The cycling is roughly 4-4.5 hours with various stops for pictures, catching up of slower riders etc.
If you start in La Paz it will probably take you a whole day. We started early in the morning, but not too early, to avoid the crowds. Even though we skipped a part of the first (fairly uninteresting) segment of the road (because of icy rains) it still took us six hours to do the whole thing. I suppose we weren't one of the fastest groups. Be aware that the ride back to the city is quite long. We got back to La Paz after 10pm.
