Description

This experience begins in the morning as we meet in Salento, in front of the clock at the entrance of Calle Real: the main street. From there, we board a traditional public Jeep Willys, the iconic rural transport of the region, and ride into the countryside toward Cocora Valley. We begin hiking along quiet rural paths that lead into the Andean forest, surrounded by lush vegetation, fresh mountain air, and the sounds of nature. As we walk, we share local traditions, slangs, history that makes this region so unique. During the ascent, we pause to enjoy a local energy snack traditionally used during long mountain walks, along with a traditional drink. The trail gradually takes us higher until we reach a hidden 360° viewpoint overlooking Cocora Valley and the surrounding mountains. After time to rest, take photos, and enjoy the silence, we descend along a different path back toward town, ending the experience with a deeper connection to nature far from the usual tourist routes.
