It\u2019s a top tourist spot in Colombia, though its popularity has driven many locals away. It&#8217;s also the main gateway to the Cocora Valley and its iconic wax palms, and for treks in Los Nevados. There are many beautiful places to stay.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-23e84385 destSectionContainer normal\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-fb46d96e postHeaderAccordion gb-accordion\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-1e294904 postHeaderAccordionPanel gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n\n<button class=\"gb-button gb-button-2ec74e2a gb-accordion__toggle\" id=\"gb-accordion-toggle-2ec74e2a\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\">Why trust TOM PLAN MY TRIP?<\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/button>\n\n\n<div id=\"gb-accordion-content-b0893f7b\" class=\"gb-accordion__content\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-b0893f7b\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-3f988422 postHeaderAccordionPanelContent\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-bd22543f postHeaderAccordionPanelContentInfos\">\n\n<p>We are on a quest across Colombia to discover<strong> the top local agencies<\/strong> to establish a trustworthy <strong>network of experts<\/strong> and gather <strong>unique, valuable insights<\/strong> for each destination.

The property is beautiful, with lovely flower gardens and a waterfall. However, <strong>it often gets crowded<\/strong>, and the three pools remind me of a bit of a municipal pool (<strong>not very natural<\/strong>). The journey can be a bit long, as you need to take a bus to Pereira, another bus to Santa Rosa de Cabal, and finally a jeep to the hot springs (<strong>about 2.5 hours one way<\/strong>). It&#8217;s better to<strong> take a tour and combine it with another activity<\/strong> (visit a coffee finca, horseback riding).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>San Vicente hot springs<\/strong> <strong>offer a more &#8220;natural&#8221; option<\/strong>.

You cross tunnels and suspension bridges. It takes <strong>about an hour<\/strong> to reach the waterfall from Salento. There is an entrance fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Cerro Morrogacho<\/strong> is a long (and steep) hike you can do from Cocora (note that you won&#8217;t see the giant palms if you take this route). A large dog has attacked several travelers, <strong>so it&#8217;s better to avoid it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The excursion to <strong>Cerro Machin<\/strong> is an excellent alternative to the Cocora Valley because you can see a more <strong>impressive grove of wax palms<\/strong>, less frequented by tourists (<strong>La Carbonera<\/strong>). Then, <strong>a one-hour hike<\/strong> leads to the <strong>Machin Volcano<\/strong> crater.
