What is a Ciclovía?
Imagine you could walk, bike, run, dance, skate, play, and participate in a variety of activities on a street without cars. This is the idea behind a Ciclovía, an event that began in 1974 in Bogotá, Colombia, and has spread across the globe as a movement to reclaim streets for all community members to have broader access to enjoyment of open air recreational activities.
Ciclovías are a great way to promote physical activity, social connection, and mental well-being. The results are not only seen in the health of the people living in the area , it also creates spaces where local businesses can provide goods and services or participate in many creative ways.
