​Travel in Colombia's Eastern Plains

Los LLanos: A nature lovers' destination
​

Los Llanos and Casanare - A Place of Wild Beauty

7/30/2020

 
Casanare is not the first destination mentioned in a visitor’s guide to Colombia. It may not even appear at all. Those who dare to visit regardless are rewarded with plenty of wildlife observation possibilities, enchanting sceneries and an immersion into one of the world's last cowboy cultures alive. 
This is big sky country, a land of cowboys and prairies, of fiery red sunsets and infinite savannas. Located north of the Amazon and east of the Andes, the Llanos are one of South America's last wild frontiers; a place for intrepid travellers and adventurers.

Diverse Sceneries and Spectacular Wildlife

Almost in the same day one can travel the Andean foothills for a mountain bike ride, gallop their horse across lush prairies and visit the climatically milder plateaus in the region’s eastern mountain range where the locals cultivate some of the country’s finest coffee beans. Casanare, one of four departments that primarily comprise the Llanos region in Colombia, is as diverse as can be.

Framed by the eastern Andes to the west and by the great Meta River, a tributary of the Orinoco, to the east, Casanare still boasts stretches of near virgin savannah and dense gallery forests, thick lines of foliage that follow the many rivers from the eastern Andes down towards the Orinoco river. These rivers cross a land flat and wide and melding with the horizon, savannas and wetlands rich in some of the continents finest wildlife. 700 species of birds, 200 species of mammals, 270 species of insects, 65 species of reptiles, 50 species of amphibians and a whopping 570 species of freshwater fish inhabit the region, which is ruled by extreme seasons. The sceneries well remind of Botswana's Okavango Delta and are equally dominated by one dry season and one wet season a year, which decide over life and death in this part of the world.
