El Canon del Pato. July 2013
Caraz to Huallanco, Peruvian Andes
26 kilometers, 35 tunnels
One television show considers this a  “most dangerous road in the world”; we found it to be an amazing mountain bike ride! We rented questionable bicycles in Caraz and rode 26 km to Huallanca passing though the Canon del Pato. It is a dramatic canyon where two mountain ranges, the Cordillera Negra and the Cordillera Blanco almost touch eachother; creating a deep canyon sometimes only several meters wide and deep enough to see little sunlight.
