Question

How high is Bogotá? Will I get altitude sickness?

Answer

Bogotá is located on a plateau in the Andes Mountains at an average altitude of 2,640 meters (8,660 ft). About 15-20% of people will get a mild altitude sickness at 2,500 meters. Symptoms can include headache and nausea. If you are prone to altitude sickness, we suggest discussing prophylactic medications with your medical provider.
