Once in Usme, look for a local bus marked 'Choachí' that will take you directly to Choachí, where the Reserva Botánica is located. The journey will take approximately 1.5 to 2 hours depending on traffic.
-
Taxi or Ride-hailing Service
If you prefer not to take the bus, you can use a taxi or a ride-hailing app like Uber. Simply input 'Reserva Botánica Choachí' as your destination. The driver will take you through the city and out into the countryside, which will take approximately 1 to 1.5 hours depending on traffic conditions.

Bicycle
For the adventurous, you can rent a bicycle in Bogotá and ride towards Choachí. Start from the city center and head southeast towards Usme, following the main roads.

Walking and Local Transport
