Alto de Letras Challenge

The Alto de Letras is the world’s longest paved road climb: 81 kilometers of continuous ascent from the tropical heat of Mariquita (480 m) to the cold páramo at the summit (3,700 m). It is the defining climb of Colombian cycling heritage — the same roads that shaped Egan Bernal, Nairo Quintana, and a generation of world champions.

The Alto de Letras Challenge is a 7-day, fully guided, all-inclusive tour built around this ascent. Every logistical detail is handled — airport transfers, single accommodation at our own unrivaled villa, daily sport massage, nutrition on route, bilingual guides, a dedicated support vehicle, and professional mechanical support. You bring the legs. We handle the rest.

The companion program is not an add-on or an afterthought — it is a core part of the Alto de Letras itinerary. Both tracks run in parallel; cyclists and companions reunite each evening at Casa de Campo La Giralda.

Casa de Campo La Giralda is a 4.92‑rated favorite among cyclists located right at kilometer 0 of Alto de Letras. Each day ends not in a standard hotel room, but in a lush resort‑style countryside haven with pools, open social areas, and kiosks where you can unwind and connect with fellow riders before the next stage of the ascent.

Group size is capped at 8 cyclists. Not for operational simplicity — because your experience demands individual attention, flexible pacing decisions, and a guide who knows your name and your riding style before Day 1.

This tour is designed for serious road cyclists who want to complete one of the world’s great bucket-list climbs with the confidence of full professional support behind them.

Beyond the ride, the journey blends local culture, great food, and historic towns—so cyclists and companions share the adventure, each in their own way.
