Guided MTB Tours in Colombia
From a 2-hour backcountry ride to a 9-day Amazon expedition — pick your adventure.
Free Morning Ride
Three mornings a week, we lead a ride around the backcountry loop through the hills and valleys behind Guatapé. No cost. Just a genuine ride through terrain most visitors never find, with people who know every turn. Register to reserve your bike and show up at Casa de Ciclistas on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday at 7:30am.
Guatapé Back Country MTB Ride
Most people see Guatapé from the top of La Piedra. This ride takes you behind it. A three-hour guided loop through quiet backcountry valleys, rolling Antioquia hills, and roads that tourist maps don’t show. Beginner-friendly terrain, local guide, and scenery that makes most riders wonder why they waited. Starts at Casa de Ciclistas.
The Mono Cuco Trail Single Track
The Mono Cuco is a challenging trail through virgin wilderness. A wild singletrack carved through dense jungle — tight lines, rooted terrain, steep climbs, and rewarding downhill runs. This trail is loaded with wildlife: plenty of monkeys, toucans, and other inhabitants that offer great photographic opportunities. One of the most wild and rewarding MTB experiences in the region, and one of the best-kept secrets near Guatapé.
Andes Wilderness MTB Adventure
This MTB odyssey carries you deep into the Jurassic wilderness of Colombia’s Andes, where towering mountains, cloud forests, remote valleys, waterfalls, and forgotten backroads reveal a side of Colombia most travelers never see. Designed for riders who crave discovery, this expedition offers an unrivaled look at some of the Andes’ most magnificent hidden gems — wild places shaped by ancient landscapes, living culture, and the raw beauty of the mountains. It is the kind of adventure that belongs at the top of every rider’s bike-it list.
Amazon MTB Expedition
This is not a typical mountain bike tour. It is a Humanitarian MTB Expedition into one of Earth’s most remote wilderness regions, where bikes become a bridge to reach isolated communities, listen with humility, and serve with purpose. You will ride landscapes few travelers ever see, be challenged physically and opened emotionally, and return with a deeper connection to the Amazon, its people, and the responsibility we all share.
Cafe Región MTB Adventure
Ride through Colombia’s legendary Coffee Region on a mountain bike adventure that blends scenic coffee farms, backcountry trails, Andean culture, and high-altitude wilderness. Pedal between picturesque plantations, visit a traditional coffee farm, explore hidden mountain routes, and climb toward the dramatic páramo landscapes of Los Nevados National Natural Park. This is one of Colombia’s most diverse MTB experiences — a journey through coffee country, cloud forest, volcano views, thermal valleys, and the wild beauty of the Central Andes.
More Adventures in Guatapé
Ride The 3 Piedras
Most people climb one. This ride connects three. The 3 Piedras route links the region’s iconic rock formations by bike, threading hidden backroads, lakeside views, and terrain that rewards the curious. If you have climbed La Piedra and want to know what else Guatapé is hiding, this is the answer.
Max-Air MTB Adventure
Mountain biking Colombia is an exhilarating experience, but reaching the edge of a cliff and your only option is to fly across a canyon on a cable with your bike, 1000 feet above the jungle floor? This takes catching air to new heights!
Camino de Oropendolas
Named after the oropéndola — a bird famous for its architectural nests and resonant call — this full-day trail winds through one of the most biodiverse wilderness corridors near Guatapé. Expect dense jungle canopy, dramatic valley views, cascading streams, and wildlife encounters that no organized tour can replicate. If you ride with your eyes open, the Camino de Oropéndolas will give you more Colombia than a week in the cities.
Pedal & Paddle Adventure
Start on two wheels, finish on the water. This ride-and-raft adventure pairs mountain bike trails through wildlife-rich forest with river passages that cut through the same landscape from an entirely different angle. Two of Colombia’s best outdoor experiences back to back — the ideal full day for anyone with limited time in Guatapé who refuses to settle for just one.
Paisa Wilderness MTB Adventure
Antioquia’s backcountry belongs to the Paisa — and to riders willing to leave the main roads behind. This wilderness expedition takes you through working farms, mountain villages, and Andean terrain that hasn’t changed in generations. No tour groups, no paved highways, no shortcuts. Just the raw landscape and living culture of Colombia’s most fiercely independent region, experienced from the saddle.
