Colombian Coffee Country is located in the heart of the central and western Andes and is famed worldwide for producing coffee that many consider to be the finest in the world. The flavor of its coffee is only surpassed by the beauty and diversity of its landscapes and small towns. From the colorful facades of tiny villages like Salento and Filandia to the giant wax palms of the Cocora Valley and snow-capped volcanoes of Los Nevados National Park, the Coffee Country is a living playground for adventurers and cyclists. In a single day, you can ride across windswept Andean moorlands with the sun glinting off distant snow peaks and descend to zip through sugarcane fields in the heat of the Cauca River valley. The region counts on excellent tourism infrastructure, with hundreds of comfortable rural hotels, roadside restaurants, and, of course, mouth-watering coffee shops. Additionally, Coffee Country is well prepared to welcome all different types of cyclists, with well-maintained and planned cycling routes and diverse levels of difficulty and types of terrain. A good example is the new and wholly signposted mountain biking route from Salento in the Quindío region to Caicedonia, which passes through spectacular landscapes and the delightful small towns of Calarcá, Córdoba, Buenavista, Pijao, Génova, and Sevilla.



The roadside hydration options for riders in Coffee Country are as diverse as the landscapes, and there’s something unique to enjoy no matter your choice of climate and altitude. On top of the chilly Alto de Letras Pass, warm yourself up from the inside out with a steaming mug of hot chocolate topped off with a hefty chunk of fresh cheese. In the tropical lowlands of the Cauca Valley, sip an ice-cold glass of fresh panela juice with a squeeze of lemon. Sugary, chilled, and refreshing, this Colombian cultural staple is the ultimate recovery drink.
