We will begin our journey in Cocora Valley at 2,400 meters above sea level, following a private traditional mountain trail that will take us deep into the lush landscapes of the region.

As we climb, we will enjoy panoramic views of the wax palm forests, with their impressive trees rising majestically toward the sky. As we continue, the trail will lead us through dense high-Andean forests, home to a rich variety of biodiversity and characterized by constant humidity, mosses, and ferns.

Finally, we will approach the sub-páramo landscape, where the vegetation changes once again, adapting to the more extreme conditions of altitude and temperature. Here, the landscape opens up to expansive mountain views, offering an impressive perspective of Los Nevados National Natural Park.
