Birdwatching in Santa Rita Natural Reserve
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Salento and drive for 30 minutes to the Santa Rita Natural Reserve by minibus. Did you know that the reserve is known for its varied bird life?
Once we arrive, we'll enjoy a delicious breakfast of eggs, arepas, and chocolate or coffee. Afterwards, we'll give a brief introduction about the rich biodiversity of the Santa Rita Reserve.
Are you ready to spot some birds? First, we'll hike about 1.5 miles (2-3 km). During the walk, if we're lucky, we'll see colorful birds such as the cock-of-the-rock or the multicolored tanager, among many other species. We'll help you to identify the different species that we see and we'll tell you many curious facts about their lifestyles.
Plus, we'll visit the stunning waterfall of the Santa Rita Reserve! Here, we'll talk about the important relationship between birds and water.
After 4 hours of hiking, we'll leave you 2.5 hours of free time to continue exploring the reserve. You can take pictures next to the waterfall, use the binoculars to locate more birds, or simply relax and take in the fresh air.
We'll finish the activity by dropping you back off at your hotel after approximately 8 hours of activity.
