7-Day Andes Mountain Biking Adventure: Colombia’s Jurassic Wilderness

Experience the ultimate Andes mountain biking adventure in Colombia, a seven-day ride through wild landscapes, hidden waterfalls, and ancient legends. This is no ordinary bike tour. You’ll face steep climbs, thrilling descents, and remote trails that few riders ever reach.

Ride Into the Heart of the Colombian Andes

Our journey begins deep in the Andes mountains of Colombia, where we tackle rugged terrain and climb to breathtaking heights. Expect a mix of epic uphills, sections of hike-a-bike, and rewarding downhill trails that make every effort worthwhile.

This Andes MTB tour is for riders who crave challenge and reward in equal measure. Along the way, you’ll experience Colombia’s raw wilderness and connect with nature at its purest form.

Discover the World’s Second-Largest Sinkhole

Early in the adventure, we’ll explore one of South America’s most remarkable natural wonders, the largest sinkhole on the continent and the second-largest in the world. Believed to have been formed by an asteroid impact, this massive cenote is home to a unique ecosystem of rare animals, plants, and birds.

Beneath the surface lie underground caves and rivers with rare fish species, perfect for riders who love to pair cycling tours in the Andes with a sense of exploration.

The Hidden Waterfall of Ventanas de Tisquizoque

Next, we ride toward Ventanas de Tisquizoque, a spectacular hidden waterfall in Colombia’s Jurassic wilderness. This remote site feels untouched by time, where a river bursts out of a mountain cave, plunging a thousand feet into the jungle below.

After a demanding 50 km uphill ride, the reward is extraordinary: the view from inside the cave, framed like a natural window overlooking the wild Andean landscape. The sound of the falls echoes through the rock, creating an atmosphere that feels otherworldly, a true off-the-beaten-path biking experience in Colombia.

High-Altitude Riding: Reaching the Paramos

Our high-altitude biking adventure continues as we ascend to the paramos, scaling peaks that rise above 8,400 feet. From the summit, a narrow rock ledge juts 60 feet over the edge, offering sweeping views of the Andes.

This is where riders truly feel the spirit of mountain biking in the Andes: remote, challenging, and unforgettable. Every climb is matched with a sense of freedom only the mountains can provide.

A Legend Born in the Andes

Long before the trails existed, this region was home to the Tisquizoque tribe, who lived peacefully in the Andes. When Spanish Conquistadors arrived, the tribe resisted, led by their chief, Cacique Tisquizoque. Facing capture, the chief leapt to his death from the mountain cave waterfall, now named Ventanas de Tisquizoque in his memory.

Today, this area remains one of Colombia’s most secluded natural landmarks, a perfect destination for remote MTB tours in South America.

Why This Adventure Is Different

This 7-day MTB journey through Colombia’s Andes isn’t just a ride, it’s a full multi-day mountain biking experience that blends challenge, history, and natural wonder.

Location: Remote Andean trails, waterfalls, and high-altitude passes.
Highlights: Ventanas de Tisquizoque waterfall, South America’s largest sinkhole, and unique paramo ecosystems.
