Cycling day trip from Funza to Bogotá

Jump on your bike in Funza, a laid-back town to the west of Bogotá known for its agricultural heritage and local markets. From here, you’ll roll mostly over paved roads and dedicated cycleways—it's a fairly flat journey with minimal climbs, making it friendly for all levels.

Your route into Bogotá covers just over 31 km, weaving through quiet roads and long stretches of cycleway. There’s little unpaved track to worry about and the traffic stays manageable for most of the trip. Along the way, you’ll trade rural landscapes for urban buzz as you approach Colombia’s vibrant capital. Bogotá sits high in the Andes at about 2,640m, and is famous for its thriving cycling culture—don’t be surprised if you share stretches of your commute with plenty of locals.

By the end, you’ll land in the heart of the city, ready to explore its plazas, street art, and cafes. This ride is a great way to experience the gradual shift from countryside calm to Bogotá’s energetic pace—all while sticking mostly to cyclist-friendly paths!
