The journey starts in the lively Bogotá. The city is vibrant and full of raw energy, and before venturing into the high-altitude plateau of Savanna de Bogotá, will set the tone for modernity. As we move forward in our tour, the diverse terrain of the country, from featuring rolling hills and mystical Paramos to the long relentless climbs in the mountains and back to the warm valley of the rivers the complexity of the Colombian landscape unfolds. The local culture unwraps just as the the terrain, warm colorful and vibrant, full of nuances. It’s also a cultural experience.

The constantly changing terrain and landscape, marked by panoramic vistas, will challenge and reward your efforts with breathtaking views. The tour crescendos in a transition from rural tranquility to the vibrant urban landscape of Medellín.

At the end the winding gravel roads morph into the energetic streets of the city, providing a poignant reminder of Colombia’s duality. This cycling journey, crafted almost as a love letter to what Colombia is, to its soul; the magnificent mountains, the deep valleys, the warmth of the people, offers not only the thrill of conquering diverse terrains but an immersive cultural experience.
