Excursion to Cristo Rey & Yanaconas (3-4 hours)
We'll ride our motorcycles toward the Andes Mountains, traveling about 8.5 kilometers (5.3 miles) to the Cristo Rey statue, a 26-meter high sculpture of Jesus Christ that crowns the hill of Cerro Los Cristales, so called because of its quartz reserves. Did you know that for its construction the materials had to be transported by mule? We'll tell you all kinds of curiosities about this place while we enjoy the beautiful views and refuel with a snack.
Then, we'll ride to the mountain of the Lady of the Andes, better known as the Virgin of Yanaconas, from whose viewpoint offers a splendid panoramic view of the Andean landscape. Afterward, we'll return by motorcycle to Cali.
Excursion to Bichacue (5-6 hours)
We'll drive for about 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) through the Andes Mountains, stopping at a restaurant overlooking the mountains to enjoy a snack of cheese and aguapanela, a type of infusion. Afterward, we'll ride another 13 kilometers (8 miles) to Bichacue, a coffee plantation converted into a natural sanctuary where its founder mixed his passion for art and nature. We'll explore this place, including its moss forest, and then return to Cali.
Excursion to the Sugar Cane Museum & Hacienda El Paraíso (8-9 hours)
This itinerary will take us on a 66-kilometer (41-mile) ride through the Cauca Valley until we reach the Sugar Cane Museum. Here, over the course of two hours, we'll learn about the evolution of sugar production while we visit this institution located in an 18th-century colonial house.
After the tour of the museum, we'll pause for a typical lunch that includes sancocho valluno, a meat and vegetable stew. After lunch, we'll go to Hacienda El Paraíso, a 19th-century mansion that inspired the Colombian novelist Jorge Isaacs to create the love story in his work María. We'll tour its different rooms and enjoy its landscapes, its pleasant climate, and its natural swimming pool.
