​​Valle de Cocora: The Lost Valley of South America​​
compass.couplecompass.couple
The giant hand of Cocora Valley, Colombia. 🌴 Nestled amongst the tallest palm trees in the world lies a giant hand sculpture. This area is known for its beauty and the hand offers incredible views of the surrounding mountains. Its free to climb, but try to visit early in the morning or later in the day to avoid being surrounded by other tourists! #cocoravalley #gianthand #colombia #colombiatravel #adventuretravelcouple #travelcouples

Great day out from salento. To get there just walk to the main square where you’ll find a willy jeep. Buy a return ticket (4+4mil) to ride in the jeep which takes you to the cocorra valley (30 min drive). Highly recommend taking money you need 8 mil for jeeps 5+5 mil for entrance to private property and some cash for coffee + cake, 1.5L water, sunscreen, cap, hiking boots or trainers as the path can be very muddy. If you want a short route to see the wax palms just head straight up the...

One of the best places to visit in Colombia. The full hike is fantastic and worth doing. The palms and the environment are unique and otherworldly at times.

The early morning was the best light for the park in my opinion. We did the full counterclockwise loop hike that goes first through the jungle and ends in the palm valley. It took about about 6...

Basically, the hike is 5⭐ but the B.S. is a star off. First, read a blog post about the Cocora hike. It will likely rain. Views are amazing, as is the flora (wild strawberries everywhere). Get the lunch AND a map from Brunch in Salento. Bring cash, small bills. As of mid 2019, the entrance is 2000, the private property fee for the palms section is 3000, and the hummingbird section is 5000. Nobody tells you this. Get boots in Salento if you can, at the corral at Cocora if not. Unless, you...
