Hike to Quebrada las Delicias from barrio El Castillo
This short but beautiful trail takes you from the central district of Chapinero in Bogotá to a beautiful waterfall in the mountains in less than an hour. It is an alternative route to the trail that is indicated with brown signs from Carrera 7 in Bogotá. We chose this alternative route since the other one appeared a bit sketchy at the entrance.
The route leads along a paved road with little traffic and beautiful views of the mountains up to Politécnico Grancolombiano (Calle 57# 3-00 este, Bogotá). There the unpaved access road to Quebrada las Delicias starts which is protected by the police in the mornings from about 6 AM until 11 AM. We recommend to go some time after 8 AM as there will be a little more people around.
Starting point: stairs near Edificio Horizontes del Castillo (Trans 1 # 58 - 55)

Linda ruta. Es necesaria reserva?
No es necesaria la reserva, es un sendero libre. :) Recomiendo ir junto a otras personas y despues de las 8 AM para que no queda tan sola la ruta.
Hola! Es la hora que recomiendas, por seguridad?
Si, exacto. Después de las 8 AM hay más gente. Es mejor ir en grupo también.
