Time to visit Caño Cristales & La Macarena

It is finally time to share and comment about Caño Cristales. The National Park „Sierra de la Macarena“ offers a unique natural spectacle. From June to November the river is variously colored yellow, green, blue, black, and especially red, the last caused by the plant Macarenia clavigera on the bottom of the river. Hiking along the river one discovers the beautiful river, cascades and its natural pool, where it is possible to take a bath.

To get to know Caño Cristales we recommend staying 2 or 3 nights in the small town of La Macarena, located in the department Meta, from here the excursions to Caño Cristales river are organized.
