Workation in Salento: the essentials
The old road from Cali to Bogotá once ran through Salento, and when it was rerouted the town was left behind, which is why its painted colonial houses survived. Salento is the oldest municipality in Quindío, with about 9,700 inhabitants at 1,900 m, and next door lies the Cocora Valley with its giant wax palms, Colombia's national tree. Days here mean coffee-farm tours, hikes and tejo in the bars around the square. Weekends bring crowds from Bogotá and Medellín, and rain is frequent all year. Armenia is 24 km away, and Matecaña airport in Pereira about 30 km.
