Description
Experience the thrill of sandboarding in the desert near Arequipa. Enjoy a freestyle downhill ride on the dunes, take in views of the volcanic range, and go off-roading through the desert.
Begin your adventure with a drive from Arequipa to the southwest, passing through the Uchumayo Valley. Stop at a small rocky mountain to take in spectacular views of the volcanic range surrounding the white city of Arequipa.
Continue downhill, taking the first turn-off to the left and going off-road through the desert. Pass small dry canyons and wild terrain until you reach a large desert. Finally, arrive at the undiscovered sand dunes.
Receive a safety briefing and some recommended tricks to practice sandboarding. Whether you’re a beginner or an expert snowboarder, the dunes are waiting for you to challenge yourself and slide down, reaching speeds of almost 35 km/h.
Enjoy a freestyle downhill ride on the dunes, standing up, sitting, or belly-style. The only hard part is climbing up to the top of the dune, which takes between 3 and 5 minutes, each time.
Finish with a 15-minute uphill hike to one of the summits and enjoy a spectacular view of the coastal desert and the Andes. Being at the top of the dune will be an unforgettable experience, rewarded with breathtaking wilderness scenery.
After a 2.5-hour adventure practicing sandboarding in a very remote and unique landscape, get out of the desert with challenging off-roading and then a 1.5-hour drive back to your hotel in Arequipa.
