This is an AMAZING route, the longest climb of the world, a very, very long climbing of 80Km at an average slope of 4%, including a maximum grade of 11%. The last 20Km are the hardest because of the altitude and it’s the portion of the route with the steepest climb.
It’s important to know there will be some climate variations. At the beginning in Mariquita (500m above sea level) we might have an average temperature of 25° C, and at the top of Alto de letras (3667m above sea level), the temperature may vary between 5° C and 10° C, so make sure to take the proper clothing for this challenge.
We will assist you with coaching you through the climb and providing the right nutrition to help you get there. This challenge includes the transfer from Pereira/Rionegro to Mariquita in a private plane.
