Monserrate mountain sanctuary overlooking Bogotá

Bogota · Traveler’s guide

Monserrate

Monserrate is Bogotá's mountaintop sanctuary and most iconic viewpoint, reached by funicular, cable car, or trail from La Candelaria.

About Monserrate

Monserrate is the mountain sanctuary that watches over Bogotá from 3,150 meters, reached by funicular, cable car, or a steep hiking trail from La Candelaria. Most visitors combine it with a walk through the historic center, but the base station has no left-luggage service of its own, and the queue for the ride up moves faster without bags to mind. Nearby partners a short walk from the base station hold luggage of any size by the hour or day, so you can make the climb — and take in the panoramic view over the city — without hauling a suitcase.
