road ripping | Warning

April 13th, 2024 by conchscooter.blogspot.com

Highway 20 is among the the worst public highways we have driven once off pavement and in the middle section. Between Kilometer 51 and 83 the excellent pavement ends and the road is a continuous strip of rocky potholed dust. We averaged 6mph/10kmh for the dirt section. Three and a half hours in our two wheel drive heavy van. It’s not difficult or technical but plan to air down for comfort. There are restaurants at each end of the dirt section to rest and eat but in the middle there is nothing but national park forest. Not even any views to speak of as the trees close in the road. The peak is at 10,600 feet /3400 meters. Absolutely horrible road. San Agustin archeological park was great so I hope Popayan is.

Fine, did it on a motorcycle with no issues. Almost disappointing to be honest haha. Be prepared for long construction waiting times if you are in a car/truck.

On the first 3 - 4 km ther are really many potholes, and you have to drive very slowy. The rest ist absolutelsy OK no 4x4 necessary at all. We have made it with a standard motorhome in 1,5h each direction.

Update - here is no dripping road anymore!!!
road through the NP was a good graveled road. No 4*4 needed!
