All travelers are a little crazy. But there are dreamers who are ready to embark on the most extreme journey for the sake of unforgettable emotions. For example, cross one of the largest national parks in Colombia on foot, and climb the tops of two huge active volcanoes.
Los Nevados National Park is located near the city of Armenia in Colombia. Surrounded by beautiful mountains and vast green plains, you feel so tiny and but very big at the same time. Your self-pride and your determination to go on a difficult journey raise the soul, and incredible views motivate you to move on and fill your chest with air. There are difficult passes, ruined paths, jungles, and the proximity of predators, but the fatigue disappears and the second wind comes when you look around.
Los Nevados National Park covers an area of 58 thousand hectares. The terrain here is far from flat. You feel like a mountain goat jumping from one mountain rise of 2500 meters to another of 5000.
The reserve has both hiking trails and jeep safaris. Look around during your trip. The forests of the park are home to many different birds and animals. If it seemed to you that something circled above the flower a second ago, but now it is not, then you are right - it was a baby hummingbird. But if you see a fresh bear paw print, stay close to the guide. There are also pumas, tapirs, possums, bears, monkeys, and many other animals. It will take a lot of paper to describe the flora of Los Nevados Park!
You can enjoy all this beauty not only during the ascent but also before and after it. Although there are no comfortable conditions in the park, there are small guest houses that have everything you need after a busy day. The houses can be rented for the night or the week. Get ready to wake up with a view of the Andes!
