Ultracycling Gravel Race

The Andean Raid is an ultra-cycling event, unsupported & single-stage. The race is 450km long with 10,000m of elevation gain. The fifth edition starts in Cusco (Peru) and goes through the Urubamba Range, reaching a maximum altitude of 4,568m.
Altitude, temperature extremes, harsh conditions, and very tough terrain make the Andean Raid one of the hardest ultra-cycling races around… If you’re up for an adventure, have mental grit & physical fitness, then why not have an adventure of a lifetime and join us this year?
The race starts on June 24, 2027, and you have a maximum time of 130 hours to finish it. The starting point will be in Cusco, the capital of the ancient Inca Empire. This means you will also have the opportunity to visit one of the Seven Wonders of the World: Machu Picchu.
