About this event
Updated on 24 de May, 2026
Monserrate hill is one of the most emblematic places in Bogotá, offering an incomparable panoramic view of the city. This Sunday, May 24, we invite you to climb the pedestrian trail, an experience that combines nature, exercise, and spirituality. The trail opens from 5:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., allowing you to enjoy the morning at the heights. Once there, you can visit the basilica, try local cuisine at the restaurants, and admire the landscape. Recommendations: Wear comfortable clothes, appropriate walking shoes, bring water and sunscreen. The weather can change, so a light jacket is useful. Arrive early to avoid crowds and enjoy the tranquility. Monserrate hill is a tourist and religious destination, with a history dating back to colonial times. It is ideal for both locals and tourists seeking a connection with nature and Bogotá's culture.
Malokal Insider Tip
“Arrive before 6 a.m. to enjoy the sunrise and avoid crowds.”
