🌴 🇨🇴 World's Tallest Palm Trees | Ultimate Guide
This became my favorite spot in Colombia—worth the 16-hour roundtrip bus ride from Medellín to Salento! Behold the 60-meter wax palms, nature's skyscrapers, in the breathtaking Cocora Valley. 🌿☁️ Go early for cool temps and fewer crowds! 💡 Must-Know Tips Tickets: Buy at the kiosk opposite the church (📍Eje Cafetero, Cl. 5 61). Other vendors no longer sell them! Jeep Ride: From Salento town (~20 mins to Cocora Valley). 🚶♂️ Hiking & Horseback Options 1️⃣ Short Walk: 10-min uphill to park entrance (quick photo op!). 2️⃣ Epic 13km Loop (4-6 hrs): Trail winds through cloud forest and palm groves—straight out of a movie! 🎥 3️⃣ Horseback Tours: Book at the jeep drop-off point. 🐎 ⏰ Timing Morning: Best light and tranquility. Return: Jeeps run regularly back to Salento. #ColombiaTravel #Salento #WaxPalms
