Coffee Area – Traveling to The Coffee Wonderland

The Central Andes of Colombia is an extension of impressive mountains on an exuberant display of natural scenery and colorful agricultural landscape. Whether you’re pedaling uphill on winding roads to achieve the daily challenge and having breathtaking views, or just cruising the countryside across fields of coffee, bananas and citrus trees, the Eje Cafetero is much more than a geographical region; it’s the roots of coffee-culture, alive and present on every hacienda, every small town, with their colonial and typical architecture perduring in time. The landscape of this region deeply attached to its identity, traditions, and way of life over hundreds of years is what the UNESCO considered to proclaim this region as a World Heritage Site in 2011, giving it the official name of the Coffee Cultural Landscape of Colombia (CCLC). If you’re traveling to the country of the world’s best coffee, a journey across the Eje Cafetero is a must. One of the reasons that makes this land so fertile is the ash from volcanic origin, deposited on the soil from the countless centennial eruptions of the volcanoes present on this chain of mountains. This trip offers the best selection of the mid elevations of the Central Andes. Being in direct contact with the coffee culture, it’s friendly people, its places, the local gastronomy and nature is what we aim at on this tour. Join us for this wonderful trip to the Coffee Cultural Landscape of Colombia; you’ll share memorable and enrichening life experiences with the local communities and their proudful customs as we explore this region riding on a bicycle.
