Report

Began and ended the double loop course at the Cartagena Clock Tower (which is built into the old city walls with three open archways). Continued on Avenida Blas de Lezo, Plaza de la Independence, Calle del Arsenal, Avenida del Pedregal, Avenida Luis Carlos Lopez, Avenida Del Mar, Carrera 1, Calle de la Ronda, and back to the Cartagena Clock Tower before beginning the second loop.

I started just after midnight to avoid Colombian heat and the crowd that hangs til late evening. Lucked out on conditions and had a great experience. Highly recommend the route for folks aiming to explore Cartagena, a true historic gem.
