Los Nevados Adventure

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.
