Why is it NO LONGER possible to touch snow on our tour to Nevado de Santa Isabel?
Until a few years ago, the Climate Change Trail allowed visitors to reach the edge of the glacier and touch the snow. However, due to the accelerated melting of glaciers in Colombia caused by climate change, the ice on Nevado de Santa Isabel has retreated several hundred meters. Therefore, it is no longer possible to touch snow in a single day. Our tour, therefore, focuses on showcasing this dramatic glacial retreat and raising environmental awareness. More than just a photo in the snow , you will experience a transformative journey on one of the last tropical glaciers in the world.
