We will pedal for a total of an hour and a half, while observing beautiful birds along the way and breathtaking landscapes. We will be able to admire Isla Foroba, a rocky island popularly known as Devil`s Island.
Lake Titicaca is the highest navigable lake in the world, sitting at an elevation of 3,812 meters above sea level. This beautiful place is located in Peru and Bolivia, and it features several important islands such as Isla Taquile and Isla Amantaní.

The Uros Islands are a set of islands made with totora reeds. The houses are also built with the same material, as it is abundant in the area. The predominant language on this island is Aymara, but they also speak Spanish.
