Things to see and do Pijao

With his long brown curls, big, wide-eyed wonder and colorful shoulder bag (reminiscent of oropendola nests!), David takes you on a journey to little-visited natural sites with an atmosphere as mystical as it is enchanting. From the bird-filled Bosque Silencio to the wax palms of Pijao, enjoy a day off the beaten track, in a small group, in the heart of a wild environment with breathtaking panoramas. An avid ornithologist, David invites you to observe hummingbirds, toucans and quetzals...

A nursery run by a local, Doña Ligia, who will offer you a unique experience revolving around the aromatic plants of the coffee cultural landscape. Ready to share the know-how of the region, with a heritage spanning several generations, the owner will teach you about medicinal plants while preparing a tasting of natural infusions. Take a seat in the pretty, colorful courtyard, a green space where you're sure to come across locals and other travelers happy to chat about the benefits of plants.

Diana was born in Pijao and knows her native territory like the back of her hand. From its traditions to its biodiversity and communities, she and her agency "Bio-Onda" offer excursions into the wax palm forests, tours to the little-visited local waterfalls, visits to coffee farms... But most of all, Diana is a birdwatching specialist, deeply committed to avitourism and certified by the Audubon training program (a naturalist ornithologist considered to be the first ornithologist in the New World).
