If you're in Bogota you can not really ignore it. From every corner where you go, you see it lie: Monserrate, a mountain of almost 3152 meter. Monserrate is an important symbol of Bogota. Not in ecological respects, but in religious terms. The name is derived from the Montserrat mountain near Barcelona in Spain. Towering 10,341 feet (3,152 meters) tall at the edge of Bogotá, forested Mt. Monserrate (Cerro de Monserrate) can be spotted from across the city. Set like a pearl on the summit is the Monserrate Sanctuary, a 17th-century church whose shrine is a major pilgrimage place for Colombian Catholics.
Visiting Monserrate
As all of downtown and south Bogotá, and large sections of the north, are visible from the top of Monserrate, it is a hugely popular place to visit to enjoy unparalleled views over the city, particularly at sunset. There are several different ways to reach the top of the mountain, including by cable car, funicular railway, and on foot.
Cable car: The cable car operates from Monday to Sunday (excluding Monday holidays) and costs up to 20,000 COP (US$6.67) for a return journey – except on Sundays when the costs drops to 11,000 COP (US$3.67).
Funicular railway: The funicular railway operates between Tuesday and Sunday, and is operational on holidays, unlike the cable car. The costs are the same as taking the cable car, with similar discounts on Sundays, and for people over 62-years-old. Both journeys are short, although the cable car offers more spectacular views on the way up. Exact prices – as well as any changes to opening hours – can be found on the Monserrate website.
On foot: Hiking to the top of the mountain is another option for visitors. It's not a hike for the faint-hearted: the church sits at 3,150 meters (10,335 feet) above sea level – a gain of some 400 meters (1,312 feet) in altitude from the starting point. It takes roughly an hour, but it's worth giving yourself plenty of time for the hike, not only for the difficulty of the altitude but also to enjoy the nature along the trail. Walking the trail is free, and the path is open every day (apart from Tuesdays when it's closed), between 5am-1pm to go up, and 5am-4pm to come back down.
A popular option is to take transport to the top, and then walk down – regardless of how you choose to visit Monserrate, it's up there with the best tourist attractions in Bogotá and is one of the city's unmissable sights.
