Great
day
out
from
salento.
To
get
there
just
walk
to
the
main
square
where
you’ll
find
a
willy
jeep.
Buy
a
return
ticket
(4+4mil)
to
ride
in
the
jeep
which
takes
you
to
the
cocorra
valley
(30
min
drive).
Highly
recommend
taking
money
you
need
8
mil
for
jeeps
5+5
mil
for
entrance
to
private
property
and
some
cash
for
coffee
+
cake,
1.5L
water,
sunscreen,
cap,
hiking
boots
or
trainers
as
the
path
can
be
very
muddy.
If
you
want
a
short
route
to
see
the
wax
palms
just
head
straight
up
the
road
uphill.
However
If
you
want
to
do
the
4.5
hour
whole
trail
through
the
jungle
with
rivers
waterfalls
and
bridges
I
highly
recommend
doing
it
anticlockwise
as
it
is
very
steep
and
muddy
in
places
and
much
easier
doing
that
uphill.
Instructions
copied
from
a
website
but
worked
for
us:
1.
Where
the
jeep
drops
you
off
you’ll
see
a
blue
gate.
Turn
right
and
enter
through
the
gate.
Immediately,
you’ll
see
a
wooden
sign
saying
“Bienvenidos,
etc”.
You
can’t
miss
it.
Continue
walking
straight,
while
descending
down
the
hill.
After
about
40
minutes,
you’ll
arrive
at
the
wooden
signpost
with
“Fundacion
Herencia
Vero”,
among
other
signs.
Stay
to
the
right
of
it.
Even
if
it
looks
like
there
is
a
fork
in
the
road,
if
you
take
the
wrong
way,
it’ll
be
obvious
within
minutes
and
you
can
backtrack
to
the
main
trail.
You’ll
cross
numerous
rickety
suspension
bridges
(5
or
6).
Arrive
at
an
actual
T-junction
in
the
road
with
a
wooden
sign
saying
“Acaime
La
Casa
de
Los
Colibris”
and
another
sign
with
a
big
red
arrow
pointing
right.
This
is
the
way
to
go
for
hummingbirds,
before
backtracking
back
to
this
same
junction.
If
you
don’t
want
to
go
to
the
hummingbirds
(we
didn’t),
then
continue
up
the
hill
on
the
left.
You
will
go
up,
up,
up
for
about
an
hour
Arrive
at
the
Finca
La
Montaña
with
great
views.
You
can
stop
here
for
a
drink
and
a
break.
Bring
a
picnic!
Descending
down
from
the
Finca,
you’ll
hike
for
about
an
hour
and
a
half
on
a
wide
dirt
road
before
reaching
the
Wax
Palm
Trees.
From
there
enjoy
the
view
and
you
can
easily
find
your
path
back
to
where
you
started.
To
get
the
jeep
back
you
just
return
to
where
you
were
dropped
off
and
once
it
fills
up
to
10
people
they’ll
drive
back!
Enjoy!!
