2023 Recap: A Year of Bikepacking Adventures and Community Connections


Bikapacking adventure in Colombia

As we bid farewell to 2023, we can't help but look back with gratitude and excitement at the incredible journey we've had at Tingua Hidden Journeys. It's been a year filled with memorable experiences, valuable lessons, and the joy of connecting with fellow bikepackers. Let's take a moment to recap the highlights that made 2023 a remarkable year for us.


1. Ruta Chingaza: Our Version

The year kicked off with a bang as we introduced our signature package, "Ruta Chingaza: Our Version." The positive feedback from our clients was not only rewarding but also fueled our passion for crafting unique and unforgettable bikepacking experiences. We are thrilled to have shared the joy of exploration with so many adventurous spirits.

2. Guiding Independent Bikepackers

One of the cornerstones of our services is providing guidance to independent bikepackers. Through our bikepacking assessment calls, we assisted numerous cyclists in planning their journeys. While we celebrated the success stories, we also learned valuable lessons from cases where clients deviated from our recommendations. Looking ahead to 2024, we're excited to announce that we are developing a tool to better understand each cyclist's profile, allowing us to tailor our recommendations more effectively.


3. Field Work Visits to Paramo Regions

In the middle of the year, we embarked on fieldwork visits to the breathtaking paramo regions surrounding Bogotá. Immersing ourselves in the local communities, we discovered inspiring community-based experiences. Now, we're diligently working on ways to better communicate these unique encounters to travelers engaging in our various services. Stay tuned for more immersive and culturally rich bikepacking adventures!

4. Peak Season Joy

The year reached its peak with a bustling season of bikepackers descending upon us to explore the diverse routes available at bikepacking.com. We were overjoyed to hear the tales of adventure, challenges overcome, and the sheer delight of discovering Colombia's stunning landscapes on two wheels. Your stories fuel our enthusiasm and inspire us to keep pushing the boundaries of what bikepacking can be.


Looking Ahead to 2024

As we step into the new year, we're filled with anticipation for what lies ahead. With the development of our profiling tool, enhanced communication of community experiences, and a commitment to providing personalized guidance, we are determined to make 2024 even more exceptional for our community of bikepackers.
