About this film

Part two of a long day on the road, this Season 6 episode pairs a destination-bound ride with a striking natural feature encountered along the way. The wax palms are identified as the tallest palm trees in the world, making them a memorable find in the Colombian mountains. The film belongs to Itchy Boots’ Season 6 journey, listed as “Ecuador to Alaska,” and keeps its focus on travel and the changing points of interest along the route.

The journey

The rider is trying to reach Salento, Colombia, continuing a long day of travel. En route, she passes wax palms at around 2,500 metres above sea level. Their height and mountain setting provide the episode’s central surprise: a distinctive sight encountered during the journey rather than a destination that set out to be the focus. The description frames the palms as the unexpected discovery of this leg, while the onward aim remains Salento.

What to expect

  • A continuation of a long day on a motorcycle journey through Colombia.
  • An attempt to reach Salento.
  • Wax palms described as the world’s tallest, encountered at 2,500 metres in the mountains.
