About Coffee Region
The Coffee Triangle is a part of the Colombian Paisa region famous for growing and producing Colombian coffee, considered by many to be the best in the world. Split into the three primary regions of Caldas, Quindio and Risaralda, the coffee region is typically characterised by deeply incised rivers, steep hills and lush foliage.
Coffee Triangle Location
The Coffee Region, located in the centre of Colombia, has possibly the finest coffee plantations on the continent, as well as some stunning scenery. There is a large population, and the three main towns of the region are Manizales, Armenia and Pereira, collectively forming what is known as the ‘coffee triangle’.
Coffee Region Attractions
There are many joys in spending time in Colombia’s coffee region. By staying at a traditional hacienda in the foothills, you can relax and take in the views which extend for miles into the lush green hills. There are plenty of activities available including walks in the Cocora Valley, strolling around the colourful streets of Salento, playing a traditional game of 'tejo', and of course, taking a tour of a functioning coffee farm.
