Cucunubá:
páramo, fog and high plateau

A Muisca-origin municipality 90 minutes from Bogotá, where the high plateau rises into the páramo and traditional mining still shapes local culture.

Local culture

Mining, weaving and high plateau

Cucunubá is historically a mining town — mainly coal — but also a center for traditional pedal-loom weaving. Both coexist in the colonial town center, declared cultural heritage.

The race seeks dialogue, not extraction: local suppliers, courses agreed with the community and a percentage of registrations reinvested in conservation.
