We explored the department Valle del Cauca on the pacific coast and checked it out on its potential for bird watching. El Valle del Cauca is another of the 32 Colombian departments, located in the southwest part of the country between the Andes and the Pacific Coast. The area is surrounded by Choco y Risaralda in the North, Qundio y Toima to the east and Choco y the Pacific Ocean to the west. Because of its location near the Pacific Coast, the area houses between 25 and 50% of the country’s fauna and 11% of the country’s flora.
The Valle del Cauca is the second most biodiverse department in Colombia. With over 725 species of marine birds and 100 migratory species, this is an ideal place for Colombia birdwatching. Get your cameras ready for some great Colombia birding photography as well and be sure to check out the rich diversity of amphibians, as the region houses over 130 different species.
The reign’s natural richness is certainly impressive, but it is also an important area of environmental conservation and protection. From the impenetrable jungles and the fast-flowing rivers to the infinite beaches and the most extensive mangroves in South America, the region is certainly one of the best things to do in Colombia for our nature lovers!

Hiking in Colombia: Jardín Antioquia
Jardin, Antioquia, Colombia is one of the most beautiful pueblos (small colonial towns) located in the department of Antioquia, about 4 hours from Medellin.
This town is famous for its unchanged appearance and virtually preserved colonial appearance. It's mountain views surround the town while it enclosed manicured gardens and lush green vegetation (hence the name Jardin) thanks to its year round spring-like climate. Jardin is a designated Pueblo de Patrimonio – a colonial town designated by Colombia for tourism and investment is provided for preservation and tourism activities.
Just a short walk outside of town is some of the best hiking in Colombia.
We think it's a dream hiking destination because of its virtually untouched pathways with few tourists, a glimpse of local life as you walk through farms and small villages and some spectacular waterfalls and caves.
There are excellent day hikes in Jardin to see:
-El Salto de Angel Jardin
A waterfall in dense jungle with a 50-meter drop and the
Cueva de los Guácharos a spectacular cave, perfectly carved by the flowing river waters
Previously we did the hike to La Cueva Del Esplendor – another fantastic hike into caves, however, it is on private land, and due to erosion it is still closed for tourists.
This is just a small glimpse of the many options for hikes outside of Jardin, each with its own set of jaw-dropping views of the town on the way down.
Birdwatching and Jardin Coffee tours are other top things to do in this laid-back town or for some adventure there is paragliding, and Caving and rappelling
How to organize Hikes in El Jardin Antioquia:
You need to hire a guide to do these hikes. We recommend Jardin Eco Tours – you can visit them on line, or head to their office a couple of blocks away from the main square off of Calle 10 #6-05
How to get to Jardin:
How to get to Jardin from Medellin:
From Terminal Sur – Catch a Jardin bus it takes 3-4 hours depending on traffic and costs about 40,000 pesos. Rapid Ochoa Jardin bus company is a great option.
How to get to Jardin from the South (From Manizales and the coffee zone)
This way is a little more challenging. Wherever you are in the coffee zone, you need to take a transfer to Rio Sucio. You need to take a collectivo (small van) to Rio Sucio, then transfer to Jardin. This journey is roughly 2 hours, and it costs about 20,000 pesos
