The best time to visit Colombia
Let your Colombian adventure begin
Of all the colourful pueblos (villages) in the Colombian coffee region, Salento is one of the most beautiful. Vibrant houses line the streets, Jeep Willys career around the corners, market stalls display intricate baskets and pretty jewellery, and the aroma of freshly-brewed beans permeates just about everything. Most visitors use Salento as a base for exploring the nearby coffee farms – and to try their hand at traditional game of tejo – but the village is also close to the Cocora Valley, one of the most stunning national parks in the country. Covered in Quindio wax palm trees that soar hundreds of feet into the air, the hills and forests are home to beautiful hummingbirds and orchids and it’s a great place to explore on foot.
This picturesque town in Colombia's Coffee Region will captivate you with its natural beauty and cultural charm. Wander through Salento’s vibrant streets lined with colourful houses and bustling markets. Discover the stunning Cocora Valley, where you can hike among the towering wax palms, Colombia's national tree. Visit local coffee farms to learn about the coffee-making process and taste some of the world's finest brews. For a bit of adventure, try horseback riding through the scenic countryside.
