My favorite place in Colombia is this breathtaking national park. Situated on the coast, it’s excellent for hiking, swimming, and doing nothing but lying in a hammock. 

When you enter the park, pay a small fee to have a mototaxi take you in, otherwise you will have to walk about an hour. On your hike, stop to enjoy the gorgeous beach at Cabo de San Juan de Guia – and enjoy an arepa from Arepas Tayrona. 

I recommend spending multiple days in the park- you can easily arrive without a plan and choose a place to stay as you hike along the coast.
