Be ready for some more twisties, some technical offroad sections, ferry ride, old bridges and drastic elevation changes, we will go from 4100 mts above sea level to almost 200, so have your bathing suit handy!

The location of this next destination is so hidden, that we will need to leave our bikes behind and take the local transportation, which I won’t reveal here but I am sure it will surprise you. We will inmerge into the deep rain forest to find our shelter for the night.

Mostly Off-road – 130 Km approx

Get your off-road game ON! Everything from dirt, river crossings, rocky trails and sand, about 110 km of it! Today we have the option of staying in a small village if we feel too tired to continue, or carry on to our destination for the day, Sonson, 2 hours away.

Today we will ride through beautiful coffee farms, the heart of Colombia, this road is only used by local farmers to transport their crops, we will find some challenging sections for sure!

Salamina is a very charming town, declared a national monument and historic heritage.

Mixed Terrain– 160 Km approx

This is our last Colonial town before heading back to Cali, also in the heart of the Colombian coffee region, Salento has become a must visit destination when in Colombia. From Salamina, we will take the less traveled roads and ride over the Andes ridges where views will take your breath away. We will make a quick stop at a coffee farm to understand a little bit of the production process, if time allows.

Salento is known for its beautiful arts and crafts, great dinning and a gorgeous lookout terrace with views to the Cocora Valley and the Tolima snow peak mountain.
