“Punta Loma Protected Area with Loberia” Bike Circuit

This circuit proposes adventuring using all-terrain bicycles, traveling in an easterly direction, through the coastal and residential sector of the city as well as along different adventure paths. The tour will begin along the coast until joining the internal and tourist route (which ends in Cerro Avanzado), finding different places of interest, as well as beautiful landscapes. Then we will immerse ourselves in wild areas, where we can enjoy a true Patagonian natural setting surrounded by native flora through consolidated trails, until we reach the viewpoint of the "Lighthouse", (here we stop for a moment). We continue along internal paths until the “Punta Loma” Protected Natural Area”, home to a permanent colony of fur seals and a great diversity of coastal birds. (Here we stopped and shared a snack). In addition, we will leave the bicycles at the park ranger station to do a short trek of low difficulty along interpretive trails about the local flora and fauna, accompanied by spectacular natural settings. We will have an informative talk about the different local resources and their context.
Finally we will begin the return to the city, making a technical stop and taking photographs in Parana Beach (pebble beach is very popular, since there are remains from the sinking of the ship »Le Folies», which can be observable depending on the tide conditions). Then we resume the circuit without stopping, until we reach the area of the viewpoint and monument to the “Tehuelche Indian” where we can enjoy a wide panoramic view of the city, beaches, industrial and fishing park. (Here we will make the last stop).
We finish the journey bordering the coastal area of beach and promenade, arriving at the initial starting point (office).

The distance we will travel will be 35km approximately with 5 stops rest, conversations and hydration.
