Climb to the top of a glaciated volcano peak, hike past a paramo and travel through a cloud forest.

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.

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.

Travel InsuranceWe advise to take out Travel Insurance to cover for any unforeseen circumstances. Bookmundi recommends World Nomads' travel insurance.
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.
