Overview

Embark on an exhilarating road bike tour through the captivating region of Boyacá, Colombia, where echoes of the past blend with the adrenaline-fueled spirit of the present. This is a land steeped in the legacy of the Independence Wars, where courageous heroes known as the Libertadores once defied the mighty Spanish army with their cunning, willpower, and intimate knowledge of the terrain.
Ride through the spectacular mountains north of Bogota, where high-altitude terrain and challenging back roads await. It was within these very landscapes that Nairo Quintana and Egan Bernal, honed his skills during his formative years, preparing them for the pinnacle of competition.
Throughout this thrilling five-day tour, immerse yourself in the charm of Boyacá as you rest your weary muscles in beautifully preserved colonial houses and cozy hotels where time seems to stand still, offering a unique blend of culture, sunshine, and breathtaking scenery that will captivate your senses.
If you yearn for a cycling adventure that seamlessly blends the thrill of the open road with the rich tapestry of Colombian heritage, all while basking in the warmth of the sun and immersing yourself in stunning vistas, then this extraordinary journey awaits you. Get ready to unleash your inner Libertador and conquer the roads of Boyacá, forging unforgettable memories along the way.

The Boyaca region is steeped with history and folklore. You will roll through 500 year old colonial villages and spend each night in cozy hotels that reflect the region’s unique architecture.

Our expert staff will make the experience more compelling, taking care of all your needs, and going out of their way to make sure that you have a great time on and off the bike, catering to all your needs.

Fabio Parra, Mauricio Soler, Nairo Quintana and Miguel Angel Lopez are just a few of the pro cyclists that come from this region. Boyaca is the holy ground of Colombian cycling.

THE ROAD TO ADVENTURE

  • - Day 2: Villa de Leyva – Tibana (+/-75km)

    Our first day or riding will take us deep into an unspoiled landscape. Over the course of 30 kilometres we will move from an arid desert to lush green mountains. There are a handful of climbs but no extreme gradients. We will get our first taste of altitude as we rise from 2100 metres to...
  • - Day 3: Tibana – Macheta (+/-85km)

    Start the day with a super fun downhill and couple of punchy short climbs to keep things interesting. About 15km into the ride we reach a short section stretch of gravel road which is passable on a road bike with care. At the 55km mark we encounter the climb of the day. We will rise...
  • - Day 4: Macheta – Bogotá (+/-105km)

    We will start the ride early to give us plenty of time to make our way back to Bogotá. The ride will trace secondary roads through country that is principally devoted to potato farming. The day would be best described as a rollercoaster with three middle sized climbs along the Savanna. The day ends back...

    We will transfer you to the airport with a lifetime of stories about the mountains and the people of Colombia
