About this tour

The Hummingbird Circuit Camping and Hiking Package is a getaway to unplug in the heart of Valle del Cocora, ideal for couples or friends. It combines a night of camping under the stars with a hike along trails surrounded by wax palms, cloud forests, and crystal-clear rivers.

The Hummingbird Circuit is a route designed to enjoy the area's biodiversity—especially hummingbirds and other birds—without the demands of a summit climb. It's all about nature, fresh air, and tranquility, with moments around the campfire and sunrises with the best views of the Colombian Andes.
