Context

The Sabana de Bogotá, the Cerros Orientales, the urban wetlands and the high Andean forests form a surprising network of habitats around a great capital. On short outings you can see waterbirds, hummingbirds and species typical of the Andean mountains; as you climb toward Chingaza the climate changes, and so does the bird community. The experience invites you to see Bogotá and its region as a living corridor, not only as an urban landscape.
