Bogota to Neusa Reservoir: ATV Tour with Pizza & Pickup

Summary

ATV rides by Neusa Reservoir wild trails and forest views

You’ll ride ATVs through forest trails around Neusa Reservoir with a local guide, stopping for views and stories before sharing fresh pizza by the water. Expect muddy boots, laughter over lunch, and a side of mountain air you might not forget soon.

What’s the experience like?

The van left Bogota early — I barely finished my coffee before we were winding past foggy hills. Our guide, Andrés, kept switching between English and Spanish, which honestly helped me pick up a few words. By the time we got to Neusa Reservoir, the air felt sharper and smelled a bit like wet pine needles. I didn’t expect it to be that green out there, or for the lake to look so wide under the gray sky. We got our helmets and gloves (mine were slightly too big but it was fine), then Andrés gave us a quick rundown on how to handle the Honda ATVs. My nerves kicked in when I first revved it — those things are louder than you’d think.

We followed Andrés along muddy tracks that snaked through eucalyptus groves and open fields. Sometimes he’d slow down just to point out birds or shout something about the old stone fences — I caught maybe half of it but liked his energy. The tires kicked up little sprays of mud on my jeans (should’ve worn darker pants). There was this one bumpy stretch where I nearly lost my balance, but somehow stayed on — got a thumbs-up from another rider behind me. Every now and then you’d get these glimpses of the reservoir through the trees, all silver-blue and quiet except for our engines.

After what felt like an hour (I lost track), we parked near this picnic spot overlooking the water. Someone started unpacking pizza boxes — nothing fancy, just hot cheese and tomato slices, but after riding in that chilly air it tasted amazing. People laughed about who got stuck in the mud most; Andrés told us how locals come here for weekends away from Bogota’s noise. I still think about that view while biting into warm pizza with cold hands — simple stuff but it sticks with you.
