I had an incredible time in Chingaza! Three great smaller hikes, each a unique experience. Beautiful experience, great tour! Andes Ecotours was excellent.

Beautiful park and they allow only a small number of visitors per day. That meant on our two hikes in the park, we didn't meet anyone else. Our guide was very knowledgeable and knew what to point out.

My son and I had a wonderful day tour of Chingaza with Lluis and Hector. Lluis was extremely knowledgeable and personable, and the park is gorgeous. I highly recommend Andes Ecotours!

I teach biology at a community college and am passionate about wildlife and went to Colombia, in part, to experience its beautiful places and unique flora and fauna. I was very interested in seeing the Paramo and booked a last minute tour with Andes EcoTours while in Bogota.
It is a full day trip and worth every penny. Pick up was a 8am and we were dropped off at the hotel around 6pm.
Pick up was prompt. Hector (both a guide and driver) picked up my son and I at 8am sharp and we left for Chingaza National Park. The ride is approximately 3 hours: an hour or so to La Caldera to deal with paperwork and pick up another guide, a park employee. (As another review said, I deeply regret not writing down the park guide's name. He was PHENOMENAL.)
During the ride Hector spoke about the park, Colombia, and everything from traffic in Bogota to recent political history. He is friendly and knowledgeable and from an area near the park. We drove in a 4X4 jeep-style car (I'm bad with car brands) which is absolutely necessary when you see the roads in the park, especially after or during a rain.
The park is at a high altitude. If you live at sea level and visit Bogota, take a day or two to acclimate to the altitude before taking this trek.
The guides discussed the history of the park on the way up and the conversation was interesting.
The first lookout point was spectacular. The sheer stark beauty of the Paramo, the mountains in every direction, the cold, the wind, the mist... all make the experience magical.
We drove to the second spot and hiked around the lakes. The frailejones are everywhere and just lovely. We also came across fresh bear tracks, but unfortunately did not see the bear. The guide was extremely knowledgeable. The walk is beautiful and muddy, but we were provided boots by the company.
After an hour, we got in the jeep and drove (descended) to cloud forest where we took another long hike. The cloud forest was lush with vegetation and full of birds. The guide pointed out bird species and plant species which I was interested in and talked about the reservoirs and a little ethnobotany as well. Perfect.
The entire day was well-paced and organized, informative, and the species found in the Paramo are beautiful to behold. If you are not from the Andes, when will you ever get to see such an environment? Aprovecha y disfruta.
I highly recommend the trip.
