Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Bogota do Cota

This ride takes you from the bustling heart of Bogotá all the way to the laid-back town of Cota, perfect for a half-day cycling adventure just outside the city. You’ll start amidst Bogotá’s high-altitude energy (the city itself sits over 2,600 meters!), then head northward on mostly cycleways—one of the perks of Bogotá’s impressive biking infrastructure.

The route is just under 35 km, and while there’s a bit of climbing, the ascent is quite gentle. You’ll leave the city behind, rolling through green, semi-rural landscapes and skirting the foothills of the Andes. Most of the ride is on paved surfaces, so it’s friendly for road bikes, though be ready for the occasional rougher patch.

Cota is a cozy town known for its dairy farms, local cheeses, and mountain views—a great place to stop for a snack and enjoy the slower pace outside Bogotá. Whether you’re a resident looking for a fun escape or a visitor seeking a slice of Colombian small-town life, this route is a refreshing change of scene within reach of the city.
