*HIDDEN GEM, THIS IS NOT COCORA*

DESTINATION: LA CARBONERA, Salento, Colombia - Be one of the first to lay eyes on an unspoilt paradise!

In Salento, Colombia there is a palm tree forest sitting at 3000 meters called "La Carbonera". People usually come to Salento to visit Valle de Cocora to see the 900 tallest palms in the world, however La Carbonera has 2 million palms making it the largest in the world and is entirely off of the radar, you won't find it on Google or in any guidebook.

La Carbonera has only been visited by 900 tourists since 2016. Only one tour company has permission to show people this beautiful valley. 20 years ago the entire region was occupied by rebel forces which has kept it off of the tourist route.

This is also the only place you can spot the yellow eared parrot, a bird species that was considered extinct in the 90s until later rediscovered in La Carbonera. 400 live in the area and can't be seen anywhere else in the world.

HOW TO GET THERE: @SalentoCycling are the only tour company that can take you there. The guys drive you to a view point with a delicious picnic. After you'll have the chance to walk into the forest before biking 20km downhill back into town (not for the faint hearted!) 100,000COP/£28.

Top Coffee Triangle Hotel Reviews

Hotel Plantación

"Great location. The food was amazing.The staff makes you feel very welcomed. The room was great and space to just relax. "

WR BOUTIQUE HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at WR Boutique Hotel in Jardín. It is a beautiful and elegant hotel, with an exceptional level of cleanliness — everything felt spotless, and the bed linens were absolutely perfect. The view from the balcony is stunning and truly adds to the experience. The location is very convenient — just a 10-minute walk to the town center, and there are many great restaurants nearby. The staff is wonderful, very friendly, and always ready to help. We would definitely stay here again!"

HOTEL MACAO

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of my favorite places I've stayed in Colombia. The location is perfect, since it's right next to some lovely hiking, and a quick walk into town. Everything was clean and comfortable, and Dora, the lady who runs the place, was so sweet and helpful. Breakfast was delicious each morning. And bonus points for having a cute dog on the property. I'll absolutely stay here again if I come back to Jardin! "
