Salento, Coffee and Palms

Salento. Sustainable Destination– Cocora Valley– Coffee Farm

(Duration: 8 hours approx.)

To discover the Coffee Cultural Landscape is to be in contact with nature, coffee culture and the shapes and colors of the houses on its villages. In Salento, we have these three experiences in one day. In the morning, we visit Cocora Valley where we walk under the highest wax palms in the world, going up to the mountain to meet up with the mysterious cloud forests. We have lunch at one of the best restaurants in the region, then you will give life with your own hands to a wax palm from Quindio, Colombia’s national tree. In the afternoon, we visit Finca El Ocaso, to learn about coffee process and to discover the best kept secrets of Colombian coffee. At the end of the day, we walk through the charming streets of Salento, the main street, the square and its viewpoints.
