After some months under repair because of landslides, the
footpath to Monserrate reopened a few days ago restoring access to the
Monserrate church for Colombians and foreign visitors. The three-kilometer
hike, from 2600 meters above sea level to the church of Monserrate at 3152
meters offers tremendous views of the city and Bogotá's Eastern Hills.
The walk
takes about one hour. For our athletic tourists it is definitely an interesting
alternativ to get to the top of Monserrate. You are also able to take the cable
car for one way and for the other way the walking path.
