Alto de Letras — Women Riders Only Cycling Tour in Colombia

About this activity

This tour starts with who you ride with. The Alto de Letras — Women Riders Only Cycling Tour brings together a group of women cyclists of similar fitness levels, validated before departure through a short questionnaire. No mixed dynamics, no pace pressure from riders at different fitness levels, no compromises on the group experience.

The route is Alto de Letras — the world's longest paved road climb at 81 km and 3,700 m of gain. The difference is in how you ride it: flexible starting points adapted to the group's profile, e-bike option available, and protocols designed for an all-women group. Safety, support team composition, and daily pace reflect that this is a women's tour by design, not by label.

Your base is Casa de Campo La Giralda — a 4.92-rated cyclist favorite at km 0 of Alto de Letras — with pools and open areas to unwind between stages.

Is This Tour Right for You? Woman who cycles regularly and targets a major climbing challenge – Prefers a homogeneous women-only group.
