Overview
The El Zur mountain bike park is a private reserve with over 25 kms. of flowing, rolling, blow your mind purpose built single-track bliss. Need we say more?
The only trail of its kind here in Guatemala and we have exclusive access to it! Unless you are a land owner there or riding with Old Town Outfitters, you wont be dropping in on any of these trails. We joined up with some friends of ours who own a mega swath of our resident Volcan de Agua and hand built as much trail as we could. The top of the trail network is at 2,500 mts (8,500 ft.), which we’ll climb via 4×4 shuttle and the drop in to the beginning of an awesome ride!

What Our Travelers Are Saying…
This is a very very fun and scenic, mostly downhill ride through some incredibly thick forest. Fun 4x4 ride up to the start and then you've got an exhilarating downhill ride back to the van. I highly recommend this adventure!

What's Tiered Pricing?
We work with a tiered pricing system, which means that the individual price per person depends on the total number of paying customers (or PAX) in the respective group. This allows us to operate without fixed departure days and required minimums. Joining existing trips is usually the best option for solo travelers, as this way we can offer a lower trip price from the start. You can see all our trips on the calendar of confirmed departures. You can keep track of the calendar to see if and which tours we still get going for your preferred trip dates. If you prioritize not making a commitment ahead of time and prefer to book on short notice, this would be the way to go.
That being said, you can of course start a new group yourself for your preferred trip date in order to get the ball rolling and hopefully have other people join over the coming weeks. If you prioritize securing the date and ensuring guide availability, choose this option. We usually charge a deposit of the respective 2-person trip price to get started. If more people join the group, the trip price will come down accordingly. Any resulting price difference we will of course refund you. In case nobody else joins, you would however have to be prepared to pay the full corresponding 1-person price in order for your trip to still go forward.
