Why Camino Nacional?
The Camino Nacional is more than a hiking trail — it is a journey through the history and landscapes of the Colombian Andes. This ancient route connects stories from pre-Hispanic America, the Spanish conquest, the Royal Botanical Expedition and the Antioquian colonization.
Along the trail, you will walk through cloud forests, discover ancient indigenous terraces, pass traditional farms and crops, and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. It is an opportunity to experience the natural and cultural heritage of the region while exploring one of its historic mountain routes.
