A good highway leaves eastward from Bucaramanga, climbs to the settlement of Berlín on the páramo, and then descends to Pamplona (120 kilometers / 72 miles, 1 tollbooth). Pamplona can also be reached from Málaga to the south. At a relatively high altitude, Pamplona enjoys a pleasant spring-like climate year-round, thus making it a popular get-away for Colombians and Venezuelans alike.
