Western Cordillera
Dramatic views of the Farallones de Cali and the lush green ridges of the westernmost Andean branch.
Cauca River Basin
The winding Cauca River creates silver patterns across the fertile agricultural valley floor early in the flight.
Northern Wetlands
Extensive views of the 'ciénagas' and tropical floodplains as the aircraft nears the Caribbean coast.
Caribbean Horizon

Choose the left side for afternoon departures to avoid the harsh tropical sun. It offers a more consistent view of the valley's agricultural diversity and the distant jungle-covered slopes of the Chocó region.
