Colombia has many magical places, and among them, find Cocora Valley in an area near the National Park Los Nevados. Cocora Valley is a very special thanks to the vegetation of Quindio wax palm, the tree emblem of the country, which in this area is one of the most spectacular frames.

At an altitude of between 1800 and 2000 meters, humidity and fog often envelops the silhouette of the palms providing a look “ghostly” very photogenic. Ideal for rural tourism conference or ecotourism in the Valley Cocora can arrange hiking or horseback riding to enjoy the fantastic extensive visual. The palms can reach up to 60 meters high, and as a whole, are stunning.
