About this trip

PICO DE LORO HIKE / FARALLONES DE CALI

Pico de Loro (Parrots Peak) offers a connection with Mother Earth as you walk through a misty forest that takes you to a stone peak, Parrots Peak (Pico de Loro). As you break through the mist be rewarded with an extraordinary view of the valley and the Farallones de Cali.


In our Adventour we will walk, run, jump and climb, the trails of this dense cloud forest that is surrounded by an abundance of waterfalls and rivers. Once here you will feel in peace with yourself and your surrounds, breathing in fresh air from the Pacific Ocean.


Pico de Loro is located within the Farallones of Cali National Natural Park, and is inhabited by more than 540 species of birds, and other animals, both groups containing species that are endangered or unique to Colombia. Here, more than 30 rivers that supply the south west of Colombia are born. It is a nature lover’s paradise, and we are privileged to experience its beauty.


Important Notice: The length of the hike is 4.5 km one way (9km total) and the terrain may be muddy and slippery. You will ascend from 1,600 m. until 2,860 m.

We had a great time. Marcela was an amazing, knowledgeable guide. So it was Mr Armando who was driving for us. The places we visited were not only beautiful, but rich in biodiversity. At the ecological park of Ingenio Providencia, Andrés the guide was wonderful. He explained all the process of the sugar cane extraction trough the years, and the different methods of it. His knowledge of birds and plants is superb. This is a tour for all ages, specially if you are interested in ecological exploring, bird watching, and flowers. Our son in his 30s enjoyed it too. We stopped for lunch at a restaurant with delicious tipical dishes. The Hacienda El paraíso was immerse in the romantic atmosphere of the literature that was originated there. Beautiful place as well, with a very knowledgeable local guide. Highly recommended tour for a nice day while visiting Cali .

Valley Adventours are the professionals. All arrangements were very easy and their follow-up was great. I enjoyed the City Tour and also took the Market Tour, which was fun too. The tour guides, Phillipe and Marcela, were fun and knowledgeable. The office is located in a the funky little barrio of San Antonio with lots of options for lunch or dinner after the tour. They have a variety of other tours and I wouldn't hesitate to book with Valley Adventours again. My experiences were easy and fun.

I did the Cali Grand City Tour with Valley Adventours and it was a wonderful experience, our tour guide did a great job in giving us history of Cali, Colombia. Totally recommend it! best time to do this tour if you can on a Sunday morning as weekdays are very hectic. I totally recommend this tour.
