The CableBike,
Pure Adrenaline
The CableBike crosses the valley of San Buenaventura from the oak forest overlooking the lake and volcanoes to the rock wall on the other side of the valley.
Ride your bike suspended in the air, hesitating between enjoying the scenery or focusing on the goal. Cycling over the coffee plantation and forest is an experience to be shared.

Safety First
Although this is an extreme activity, CableBikes are particularly safe. You wear a harness independently hooked to the cable above. Our guides receive training in safety, rescue and first aid. Our equipment (harnesses, straps, pulleys, etc.) is certified in Europe and the USA. The design and construction of the cables conform to international safety standards and have been tested with loads that give a wide safety margin.
