This spectacular ride starts at 6,000 feet (2,000 meters) and dives down into the second largest canyon in the world, the Chicamocha Canyon. Passing waterfalls, coffee and tobacco farms we ride to Jordan, a historic pueblo (town) 1000 feet above sea level. This is one place most tourists don't have an opportunity to see. Here we stop at a refreshing natural pool to cool off, have a swim and enjoy a fantastic lunch! Once your bellies are full and you have taken in the sunshine we hop in the 4x4 and climb out of this magnificent canyon to our final downhill destination. This is a fast and smooth sunset descent down to the gorgeous natural pools outside the town of Curiti. Here we have a celebratory beverage and watch the gorgeous pink and purple sunset. This is a day that you will never forget of over 50 km of downhill riding and views to talk about for years to come.
