点评:Absolutely breathtaking views. Sittings of rare monkeys that are only found in this part of Colombia, and Playa La Piscina is a little piece of heaven. Things to note/things I wish I had known.
-Entry is a process, with multiple fees- entry, health insurance, the shuttle to the trailhead (highly recommended, both to save your energy for the trail and because walking on the side of that road looks dangerous). They check your bags carefully for plastic, and make you throw away all plastic bags and bottles prior to entering the park
-Ironically, there are places to stop, about every 30 minutes to get snacks, water (in plastic bottles), juice , ice cream , and full restaurants at Playa La Piscina and Playa Cabo San Juan. The one at La Piscina looked really cute and good. My favorite stop was one run by members of the Kogi population there for Agua coca— they hack open a coconut with a machete and offer it to you con, or sin carne (coconut “meat.”) Very refreshing!
- The hike is no joke— I am in my late 50’s , run half marathons and do Orange Theory 4x per week, and I thought the hike, though not that technically difficult, was very strenuous— lots of stairs and natural stairs up and down, and it is hot and humid. The steps are sometimes in disrepair, and although signs everywhere tell you to use the handrails, there often aren’t any
-If I were to do it again , I would just hike to La Piscina and back. Cabo San Juan was crowded, not as pretty, and not worth the additional effort.
Overall A+ Don’t miss this !
翻译:绝对令人叹为观止的景色。只有哥伦比亚这一地区才有的稀有猴子,Playa La Piscina 是一小片天堂。需要注意的事情/我希望我早知道的事情。
-进入是一个过程,需要支付多项费用-入场费、健康保险、前往步道起点的班车(强烈推荐,既可以节省您在步道上的体力,也因为在路边行走看起来很危险)。他们会仔细检查你的包里是否有塑料,并让你在进入公园前扔掉所有的塑料袋和瓶子。-讽刺的是,在 Playa La Piscina 和 Playa Cabo San Juan,大约每隔 30 分钟就会有一个地方可以停下来买零食、水(装在塑料瓶里)、果汁、冰淇淋和全套餐厅。La Piscina 的餐厅看起来非常可爱和美味。我最喜欢的一站是由那里的科吉人经营的 Agua coca 餐厅——他们用大砍刀砍开椰子,然后把它给你,或者 sin carne(椰子“肉”)。非常清爽!
- 徒步旅行不是开玩笑——我快 50 岁了,跑过半程马拉松,每周参加 4 次 Orange Theory,我认为徒步旅行虽然技术上并不难,但却非常费力——上下有很多楼梯和天然楼梯,而且天气炎热潮湿。台阶有时年久失修,虽然到处都有标志告诉你要使用扶手,但通常没有
-如果我要再来一次,我会徒步到 La Piscina 再回来。Cabo San Juan 很拥挤,不那么漂亮,不值得付出额外的努力。
总体 A+ 不要错过!
