Paramo Guerrero

Spectacular view from Paramo Guerrero.

Stage 1:
Cajicá -> Zipaquirá -> Las Margaritas -> Alto del Águila -> Paramo Guerrero -> San Jorge (104km / 1700m↑)

We will pick you up from your hotel and head to Cajicá, where we start the ride. Our route includes visiting Zipaquirá, Egan Bernal's hometown, and several famous climbs. We will finish the ride back in Cajicá.

Add the mighty Pacho - Alto del Águilar climb (21km / 1400m↑) to make it more challenging. This Hors Categorie climb is not for the faint-hearted and will result in a total distance of 150km with an elevation gain of almost 3000m↑.

Macheta

A long 11km descend to Machetá.

Stage 2:
Sopó -> Sisga -> Machetá -> Sopó (105km / 1500m↑)

We’ll be picked up from the hotel and travel to Sopó for Stage 2. The ride will take us north to Lake Sisga via the main highway. After an 11km descent to Machetá, we will climb back up and return to Sopó to end the ride. We will then travel back to Bogotá by car.

For an extra challenge, try the Santa Rosita climb. It makes a total distance of 125km with an elevation gain of 1750m.

Alto de la Cuchilla

Stunning scenery from Alto de Cuchilla.

Stage 3:
Patios -> La Calera -> Cuchilla -> Guatavita -> Sesquilé (103km / 2000m↑)

The final stage will begin at the front door of your hotel. We start with Patios, the locals' go-to training climb. Heading north, we pass by La Calera, Macadamia, Guasca, and many scenic agricultural farmlands.

You'll climb the iconic Alto de Cuchilla. Explore Tominé, the reservoir famous for the legend of El Dorado. Visit the charming town of Guatavita before ending our ride in Sesquilé. 

For a real challenge, try the brutally steep Alto de Potosí. It's only 3km long and 370m of elevation gain, but the average gradient of 12% and many 15%+ ramps make it so epic.
