The world’s toughest mountain bike race!
La Ruta is the original mountain bike stage race that has been dubbed the world’s toughest mountain bike event due to the route's incredible elevation, treacherous jungle terrain, and 20 microclimates while crossing Costa Rica. In addition to the rugged stage race, riders who are not ready to conquer the entire crossing can get a taste by taking on the La Siesta one day ride. Whether you are an experienced rider or amatuer looking for a quality mountain bike experience the event should be on your bucket list!
