Lumbre Glamorous Camping

Zona Cafetera


Some 3km from the Valle de Cocora trailhead, this glamping hotel sits in the midst of glorious countryside. The spacious tents have rooms with comfortable beds and attached bathrooms, and the restaurant serves an approximation of Italian food. The friendly owners can arrange for you to plant wax palms in the valley. From Salento arrange pickup or hop on a Cocora-bound Willys jeep.
