Tour La Periquera Waterfall

Overview

The La Cebada River, as it flows through a small canyon, creates spectacular waterfalls.

The hike through the canyon will lead you through the oak and gaque forests, which survive in small fragments, highlighting their importance and conservation.

During the walk, in addition to marveling at enormous bromeliads, orchids, and various trees of the high Andean forest, you can enjoy the beauty of the waterfalls and their awe-inspiring sound, as well as the calm, relaxing waters that invite you to swim and unwind. You’ll also be treated to a wonderful view of the mountains and the Villa de Leyva valley. The tour includes visits to three waterfalls in the park, with La Periquera Waterfall being the largest.
