At 6:30 am we'll meet at Carrera 5 in Salento. There we'll get into a 4x4 vehicle to start the excursion to the Cerro Morrogacho Reserve.

Once we arrive near the Cocora Valley, we'll begin a four-hour hike to the Cerro Morrogacho Reserve. Along the route, we'll be surrounded by the typical vegetation of the Colombian Andean forest and various springs that are important for the region's water supply.

If we're lucky, we might see various specimens of the 31 bird species that inhabit this area, many of which are endangered. The guide will provide information about their characteristics and how to distinguish them.

Upon reaching an altitude of 3450 meters (11318 feet) above sea level, we'll enjoy views of the Cerro Morrogacho Reserve and its natural environment. We'll have time to take pictures of the panoramic view of the Cocora Valley.

Afterwards, we'll start our descent, stopping for a picnic lunch in a quiet place.

When we reach the foot of the valley, we'll conclude the excursion by returning to Salento at approximately 5 pm.
