About the Costa Rica Coast to Coast Cycle
Pedal your way 500km (311 miles) across Costa Rica from coast to coast. From the ocean's aquamarine waters to the lush, green of the rainforest! Costa Rica provides a stunning backdrop for this ultimate challenge and it's no coincidence that it means 'Rich Coast' in Spanish. Mother Nature has blessed the country with a treasure trove of white sand beaches, tropical rainforest and a huge variety of rare plants and animals, spread between the Pacific and Caribbean.
This breathtaking charity bike ride takes in traditional Costa Rican farmlands, bustling colonial cities, stunning mountain ranges, smouldering volcanoes and tropical Caribbean lowlands.
