Andean Ridges
Jagged peaks of the Cordillera Oriental visible during the steep climb out of Yopal.
Lake Tota
A stunning view of Colombia's largest high-altitude lake, known for its deep blue color.
Sogamoso & Duitama
Aerial perspective of the industrial and residential heart of the Boyacá department.
Sabana Greenhouses
The massive plastic-covered flower farms that dominate the northern Bogota plateau.
Zipaquirá Area
The rolling hills near the famous Salt Cathedral as the plane aligns with the BOG runway.
Sit here for the best chance to see Lake Tota, which is a major highlight about midway through the short flight. Afternoon flights offer beautiful warm light on the western slopes of the mountains. Expect some turbulence as the plane crosses the mountain ridge to enter the Sabana de Bogota; the views of the patchwork fields during this descent are world-class.

Los Llanos
Infinite vistas of the eastern plains and massive cattle ranches surrounding Yopal.
Cravo Sur River
Meandering river paths that define the geography of the Casanare region.
Eastern Foothills
The dramatic wall where the flat plains abruptly meet the rising Andean mountains.
Bogota South
Dense urban clusters and the southern mountains of the capital during the final approach.
Morning flights provide excellent lighting on the plains without the western sun glare. Keep your eyes peeled for the sharp geological 'break' where the plains end and the mountains begin. During descent, look for the contrast between the green hills and the red-brick architecture of Bogota's southern districts.
