From the very beginning you will easily appreciate tall and stunning Wax Palm Trees: our national emblematic tree, that has environmental and popular importance to the region and the country.

5Tour La Carbonera from La Cabana Ecohotel
This is an experience for kids older than 8 years old. Edward who works with La Cabana is an experience tour coordinator. It is a long day as the driving is intense. My flights were delayed and Edward and the manager of La Cabana Maria Camila helped us rescheduling our tours. The food at the hotel is excellent I contacted the hotel after the earthquake and they didn't have any damage but the airport and Salento did.

5The tour was really...
The tour was really insightful into not only the different aspects of nature in the Cocora Valley, but also about the history of Salento.
5Great guide
Our guide Juan Manuel made all the difference. Extremely knowledgeable, great English and extremely engaging. The hike itself was beautiful and I’d highly recommend it.

About Salento
Salento, in Colombia's coffee region, is a small hill town of coloured balconies close to the Cocora Valley and its towering wax palms.
Salento sits in Quindío department at around 1,900 metres in the Central Andes, in the heart of the coffee region. Houses along Calle Real are painted in bright colours, with carved wooden balconies and doors, and the main square is ringed with craft shops and cafés. A stairway climbs to a lookout above the rooftops, and old Willys jeeps parked on the plaza carry passengers to the valley.
