Walk through a valley where palms soar 60 meters high, taller than any other palm species on Earth. You'll hike misty trails surrounded by giant wax palms, cross wooden bridges over rushing streams, and spot Colombia's national tree in its only natural habitat.

Faits rapides: Ces palmiers imposants peuvent atteindre jusqu'à 60 mètres de haut, ce qui en fait la plus grande espèce de palmiers au monde. Chaque arbre peut vivre plus d'un siècle, son tronc recouvert de cire distinctive le protégeant des éléments.

Points forts: Les palmiers à cire ici sont des vestiges vivants de la période jurassique, étant restés pratiquement inchangés pendant 200 millions d'années. Se tenir parmi eux donne l'impression de pénétrer dans un monde préhistorique, avec la brume qui roule dans la vallée tandis que les palmiers se balancent à 20 étages au-dessus de votre tête.
