Holidays in La Palmita

Been burning the candle at both ends? Dying for a break and a few early nights? La Palmita might just be the answer. It's set among the forests and rivers of Tolima — nice and not too touristy. (We reckon you'll feel so relaxed, you'll be under the blankets by sunset!)

It lies 130 kilometres to the southwest of Bogota, the country's capital.

Cascada del Amor, 15 kilometres away, is the place to head if you're craving some fresh air and a leisurely afternoon. It's certainly worth the drive.

If you've got plenty of time, why not head to a few nearby destinations? Purificacion and Prado are 5 kilometres and 13 kilometres away, respectively.

Spend a morning or afternoon at Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, the Tolima Theater and the Tolima Art Museum. All of these sights are quite close to the centre of Ibague, 80 kilometres to the northwest. Have more time on your hands? The Jardin Botanico San Jorge and Plaza de Bolivar should also feature on your travel plan.

For something a bit more lively, you could look into the region's mountain climbing options. Or perhaps hiking is more your style? Whichever you opt for, you're guaranteed to have a fun time.

Picnicking and camping are wonderful ways to take time out and get some sun on your skin.

Whether you're plunging headfirst into it, drifting on top of it or bouncing along its surface, not much beats spending a day around the water. You can have a go at several watersports here, such as swimming and canoeing.

Explore the region's art museums and indoor markets. They are wonderful places to visit when the rain starts bucketing down.

Take a nice walk and fill your lungs with fresh air at the surrounding area's open-air markets.

Discover the area's secrets with a trip to a few of the close-by old towns. If a tour guide isn't around, ensure you do a little research of your own.

Yearning for a bit of peace and quiet? You might just find what you're looking for at La Palmita's churches and cathedrals.

Whether you prefer the thrill of Michelin stars or gnawing on a snack from a street cart, sampling the local food and drink is one of the best things about travel. So why not tempt your taste buds by tucking into some of the area's delicious offerings?

Typical food here tends to include rice and potato, two regularly used ingredients for which the region is known for serving up.

While La Palmita offers an assortment of delicious foods, don't miss tomales tolimenses and ajiaco (chicken and vegetable soup). Considered signature recipes, you'll have to put them on your must-eat list if you truly want to taste this destination.

Thirsty? Shout yourself to a round of Pilsen, a brew that should be on your bucket (or pint) list.

Like talking about the balance, texture and structure of a tasty drop of wine? Or would you rather cork it and just drink it? Casa Grajales white and Casa Grajales red are the ones to order here.

With just a little bit of your travel allowance remaining in your wallet and some wonderful memories that will last a lifetime, say one last "Hasta la vista" to La Palmita.

Situated 130 kilometres to the northeast is El Dorado International Airport (BOG), the nearest terminal. Be sure you have enough time to find it.

"El único inconveniente fue que el Hotel se quedó sin agua, tenia un compromiso en horas de la mañana, y tuve que salir a cumplir sin bañarme. Preocupante que el Hotel no tenga reservas de agua para sus huéspedes, siendo un recurso tan importante."
