San Bernardo (Spanish pronunciation: [sam beɾˈnaɾðo]) is a municipality in Colombia, in the department of Cundinamarca. It is 99km from Bogotá. It is characterized as an agricultural pantry area due to the high fertility of its land and variety of climates. San Bernardo's main products are blackberry and pea, renowned for its excellent quality.

Due to its location on the Andes, the weather conditions are ruled by the altitude and wind coming from Páramo Sumapaz; this affects the municipality with the cooling of some areas, especially at night, providing mild weather in some other high altitude areas.
