What To Expect
This wonderful experience begins in Salento taking the Land Rover to drive 23 km along the old road that connects Salento with Ibagué. It is now a stone path used by farmers and some mountain bikers on the weekends.
Day 1: For the more adventurous, walkers and those who wish to complement the experience of our "wax palm empire plan" in a more active way; We offer you the opportunity to continue from Carbonera to Finca Gallego located at 2,600 meters above sea level, where you will spend the night and have the opportunity to share with the peasants who live in this part of the mountain and experience the magic of the starry nights.
Day 2: The next day after having breakfast and milking the cows, they begin the trek until they reach 3,200 meters above sea level in the "high eyebrow" and after enjoying the valley of Gallego, Galleguito and Primavera palms; They will begin their descent on the east side of the mountain, until they reach the next farm where they will have lunch enjoying another magical natural setting of Quindio and return to Salento arriving at approximately 4:00 pm.
