The road opens like a promise — black ribbon rising out of Cali into the cool, thin air of the western Andean foothills. On a high-capacity cruiser you feel the engine’s steady push as the city drops behind and switchbacks tighten; after about 9 kilometers of climbing you’ll park beneath the 26‑meter iron-and-concrete Cristo Rey, a hulking vantage point that looks over the valley.
