1495 Travel Guide

Chicamocha National Park (commonly Panachi) sits on the rim of the Chicamocha Canyon in Santander, a natural balcony over Andes grandeur. The canyon is cut deep by the Chicamocha River; red cliffs and mist unfold in layers at dawn, and a cable car crosses the gorge for panoramic drama. The park blends nature and folklore—ziplining, hiking, a folk village showcase and a stargazing observatory. Whether chasing sunrise seas of cloud or Santander mountain culture, it is among Colombia's most staggering inland scenic destinations.
