One of Colombia's main natural attractions, the Cocora Valley (Valle de Cocora), is located in the northwest of the country, in the Quindío Department.

Nestled in the lush Andes Mountains at an altitude of 1,800 to 2,400 meters, the valley is almost always shrouded in mist, giving the landscape a mystical and unique atmosphere. It is part of a National Park that belongs to the larger Los Nevados National Natural Park, which spans around four departments and covers an area of over 60,000 square kilometers.

The Cocora Valley is also famous for being home to the wax palm, the tallest palm tree in the world and Colombia’s national tree.
