This day trip to Machín volcano offers natural viewpoints, lush vegetation, and local cuisine. It is an opportunity to immerse yourself in nature and explore one of Colombia's significant volcanoes.
Day Trip Details
The adventure begins at the main park of Salento at the designated time. We will embark on an offroading trip along the National Trail, one of South America's oldest roads, showcasing remarkable landscapes and historical significance.
A stop at the Nevados viewpoint will allow you to enjoy Colombian coffee while taking in views such as the Cascada de la Ceja. Following this, a traditional breakfast will be served next to the towering wax palms, which are exclusive to the Colombian Andes, reaching heights of up to 70 meters (229 feet).
We will then proceed to Toche, where a typical lunch will be enjoyed amidst the picturesque houses of this small town, located in the Andes. The route includes a view of an unusual cemetery in the forest along the National Trail.
Upon reaching the Machín volcano, participants will have approximately three hours of free time to explore the area, including notable stalagmites that form on the cave floors. The tour concludes with a return to the meeting point in Salento by 7:30 pm.
