The climb up over 100 flights of stairs was well worth it! The view of Bogota was beautiful. We went before lunch so it wasn’t too crowded. Our youngest son (age 6) made the climb without difficulty. Definitely worth the time!

It’s a must if you visit bogota or if you are new in town. Authentic lift, historic buildings and all city in front of you in top of a forest. Must do.

Because the teleférico (cable car) was undergoing maintenance, we rode the funicular to the top of the mountain. Pilgrims generally make the trip on foot. The funicular was wonderful.

Even before it became a sacred place for the Spanish colonialists, it was already revered by the indigenous Muisca people. This is a place that you should not miss when you visit Bogotá.…
