The most popular Strava cycling segment in the world this year isn’t in the Alps or the Pyrenees, nor is it in Mallorca, or the bike-friendly cities of Copenhagen and Amsterdam. No, the most popular segment is in Colombia – a climb called the Alto de Patios on the outskirts of Bogotá.

According to Strava, the exercise app that released its annual Year in Sport report today, the segment most ridden by its users in 2025 is named ‘ Mi Segmento: de la redomita a Patios ’, and covers 5.5km of the road out of the capital to the town of La Calera, locally known as the Patios climb.

The segment was ridden by over 34,000 different people in the first 11 months of 2025 alone – that’s 102 new faces a day. You may like
