Traversing the entire Upper Magdalena River Valley is an unconventional route for travelers, but one that will not disappoint, as you can enjoy such striking contrasts such as the Tatacoa Desert and, a few hours later, be in the presence of the splendid rock sculptures in San Agustín. For walkers, hikers, climbers, and those who want to try whitewater rafting, there is everything from the Combeima Canyon to the Nevado del Tolima to the rapids on the Magdalena. Aside from all the outdoor pursuits, take time to enjoy some more culturally refined practices in Ibague or try and catch a performance in the Teatro Tolima. Then satisfy those hunger pangs by feasting on a tamale tolimense.
