HIGHLIGHTS

Climb to the top of the glaciated volcano of Nevado de Santa Isabel
Hike through a paramo landscape, a unique ecosystem found only in this region
Travel through a cloud forest, see exotic flora and fauna
Stay in quaint mountain farmhouses, get the taste of the Andean way of living

Hike through Colombia's most famous mountainous terrain during this 5-day, guided trip. Enjoy the varied, stunning natural beauty of the region whose landscape dramatically changes from snowy mountains to lush, green forest within a small area. Climb to the top of a glaciated volcano peak, hike past a paramo and travel through a cloud forest.

Enjoy our private pickup service from Pereira's airport and drive to Potosi, a farming area just outside Los Nevados National Park. Start hiking from the the Nevado de Santa Isabel trailhead, which starts at an altitude of 4000m above sea level.

Climb to the top of the Santa Isabel Volcano. See glacier lakes along the way. Travel to Laguna de Otun, a lake fed by the Santa Isabel Glacier. Enjoy walking through the lush green landscape of a paramo, a variety of alpine tundra ecosystems known for being home to spongy species of plants with succulent stems used to store moisture. See frailejones (cactus-like plants), rabbits and Andean condors along the way.

Travel through a cloud forest whose lower parts are dominated by giant wax palm trees, the tallest palm trees in the world that shoot up to 60m into the sky. End your journey in the Cocora Valley. Visit the quaint, colonial town of Salento, known for its colorful, sprawling mansions, and drive to the airport for your departure flight.

Other Practical InformationThis is a high-altitude trek. You will spend your first night at an altitude of 3,930m and trek to the height of 4,950m on Day 2. We recommend acclimatizing in Bogota (2640m) for at least 2 days prior to this trip to avoid altitude sickness. The physical demand of this trip is very high, with days 2 to 5 involving 6 to 10 hours of high-altitude trekking on moderate to steep terrain everyday. You need to be physically fit to participate in this adventure. You will need to carry a backpack with trail water, food, a sleeping bag and your personal belongings (clothes, personal medicine, etc) by yourself Weather conditions do not always allow for reaching Nevado de Santa Isabel's highest point. Your guide will determine whether it is safe to make an attempt to the top.
