Frequently Asked Questions

What's the golf experience like at La Calera, given its unique location?

You'll find golf at La Calera to be a truly elevated experience, literally. Playing at over 8,500 feet above sea level means your ball flies further, which is a fun challenge to adjust to. The views of the surrounding mountains and Bogotá in the distance are absolutely stunning, making every hole a scenic delight.

When is the best time of year to plan a golf trip to La Calera?

We recommend visiting La Calera during the drier months, typically December to March or July to August. While Bogotá's weather is famously unpredictable, these periods generally offer more consistent sunshine and less rain, ensuring you get the most out of your round. Be prepared for cool mornings and evenings regardless, given the altitude.

How easy is it to get to La Calera's golf course from Bogotá, and what should I expect for the journey?

Getting to La Calera is quite straightforward from Bogotá, usually a scenic 45-minute to an hour drive depending on traffic and your starting point. We suggest arranging a private car or using a ride-sharing app for convenience, as public transport options are less direct. The winding mountain road offers beautiful vistas as you ascend.

What's the typical cost for a round of golf at La Calera, and is it good value?

Expect green fees at La Calera to be on par with other premier courses around Bogotá, offering excellent value for the quality of the course and the unique experience. While prices can vary, we found it to be a worthwhile investment for a memorable round in a spectacular setting. You're paying for a well-maintained course with incredible views.

Since La Calera has just one golf course, what else should I know about spending a day there?

After your round, you'll find the clubhouse at La Calera offers a comfortable spot for a meal or a drink, often with those same fantastic views. While the town of La Calera itself is small, it's a great base for enjoying the fresh mountain air and perhaps exploring some local eateries before heading back to Bogotá. It's truly about the golf and the natural beauty here.
