Search flights from BOG to AXM
Nevado del Ruiz
The most famous active volcano in the region, usually visible with its distinct glacier and occasional ash plumes.
Nevado del Tolima
A striking, symmetrical volcanic cone that stands out sharply against the blue high-altitude sky.
Sabana de Bogotá
The flat, high-altitude plateau surrounding BOG airport, dotted with flower greenhouses and reservoirs.
Coffee Cultural Landscape
During descent into AXM, look for the steep, emerald-green hills covered in coffee and banana plantations.
Book the earliest morning flight possible (6:00 AM - 8:00 AM) to ensure clear skies; by midday, the volcanic peaks are almost always shrouded in thick clouds. Have your camera ready immediately after takeoff and through the mid-flight cruise for the best volcano shots.

Bogota Metropolitian Area
Aerial view of the massive urban sprawl of Colombia's capital and its dense grid system.
Cerros Orientales
The lush green mountains that border the city, often featuring the white sanctuary of Monserrate.
Magdalena River Valley
The crossing of Colombia's principal river as it snakes through the warm tropical lowlands between ranges.
Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat blur. This side is particularly scenic during evening flights when the sun sets over the Western Cordillera, casting long shadows across the Magdalena valley.
